Fall detection systems and algorithms represent a rapidly evolving field at the intersection of biomedical engineering, machine learning and sensor technology. These systems are designed to ...

Google announced that it’s rolling out Pixel Watch fall detection starting today. Like the Apple Watch feature of the same name launched in 2018, Google’s version also uses motion sensors and ...

When the Pixel Watch does detect a hard fall—using motion sensors and a mix of machine learning—it will wait 30 seconds for movement before vibrating and setting off an audible alarm.

Google has filed a patent for radar-based fall detection via a smart home device, suggesting that the Nest Hub could gain this feature.

The algorithms are built specifically for home and care applications with the ability to identify patterns and trends that may cause a fall.

This capability is triggered when a hard fall followed by about 30 seconds of no movement occurs. It leverages motion sensors and on-device machine learning.

Google has announced that its highly anticipated fall detection feature is rolling out to all Pixel Watch users today. Fall detection uses motion sensors and on-device machine learning to identify ...
