Abstract

The increase of lonely senior citizen living by themselves may cause mental and physical health issues as well as the chances of accidents happen most likely to be high. Thus, this project entitled “Development of Fall Detector Using NodeMCU for elderly people” aims to develop fall detector for elderly people. This project were equipped with NodeMCU and global positioning system (GPS) which integrated with gyroscope and accelerometer sensors that able to sense sudden falls. It will notify their children or close contact if there are emergency aided needed with the current location provided. The project needs to be connected to the internet so that the use of its advantages is comprehensive. This project implement threshold approach on detecting sudden movement and the detection in sensing acceleration, orientation and angular condition is excellent. The development in making this project is to improvise surveillance, community and individual safety.
