Sudden Fall Detection and Protection for Epileptic Seizures

This project used an Arduino based protection system for the people suffering from an Epileptic seizures.Using an accelerometer, which will detect the fall of the person and triggers the airbag.This project helps the people who are suffering from epilepsy and protect them from injuries.An Epileptic Seizure is a sudden and uncontrolled symptom originated in brain. They could be due to abnormal electrical activity start in brain for very brief period and also recurring seizures due to a brain disorder.The effect of injuries are seriously caused due to falling and losing alertness or realization during or after a seizure, for instance a broken bone or injury. A push pull solenoid is used to puncture a canister that is present in the airbag. A relay is used to operate the solenoid. When the fall is detected, the Arduino will trigger the airbag.This project objectives to design and development of precise system for fall detection based on Arduino technology through noticeable perfection in accuracy and specificity of system.
