Abstract:
Provided herein are systems and devices capable of detecting an event, such as the fall of a human. The devices may include a motion sensor, a heat sensor, and a vibration sensor. The devices and systems also may include an alarm and/or communication device configured to function when the event occurs.

Claim (Index 13):
A method for detecting an occurrence of a fall of a human, the method comprising:\n providing a system according to  claim 1 ; detecting a motion-to-stationary transition of the human with the motion sensor; estimating a distance of the human from the heat sensor by determining a fraction of the plurality of pixels that detect a body temperature of the human; determining whether the human is standing after the motion-to-stationary transition based on a signal from the heat sensor; and declaring the occurrence of the fall if\u2014 [1] (i) the human is not standing after the motion-to-stationary transition, and (ii) a signal from the vibration sensor is greater than a threshold value based on the distance of the human from the heat sensor; or [2] (i) the signal from the heat sensor indicates that the human is standing after the motion-to-stationary transition, (ii) no movement is detected by the system for at least 10 seconds after the motion-to-stationary transition, and (iii) a signal from the vibration sensor is greater than a threshold value based on the distance of the human from the heat sensor.
