METHOD AND DEVICE FOR MONITORING POSTURAL AND MOVEMENT BALANCE FOR FALL PREVENTION

摘要

A method for monitoring postural and movement balance for fall prevent is provided. The method includes the following steps. Multiple sensing signals of a human body are obtained. A center of mass (COM) signal and a center of pressure (COP) signal are modeling according to the sensing signals. A correlation coefficient is calculated according to a mediolateral velocity of the COM signal and the COP signal. A threshold is obtained according to at least one regression model stored in a database. Whether the correlation coefficient is smaller than the threshold is determined. An alert is produced when the correlation coefficient is smaller than the threshold.
