Thesis
Broadley, R. How to build better fall detection technology : a search for characteristics unique to falls and methods to robustly evaluate performance. (Thesis). University of Salford

Falls can have severe consequences for older adults, such as bone fractures and long periods unable to get up from the ground, known as a long-lie. The capability to automatically detect falls would reduce long-lies through ensuring prompt arrival of...
