Welcome to the Project!

Millions of Falls Happen Each Year – Help Us Reduce Falls and Reduce Injury!

Important information about this study:

We are inviting you to join this research study. The purpose of the research is to develop a prototype wearable device that can detect when a person has fallen.

The reason you may want to participate in this study is to help improve the ability to predict and detect when a person has unintentionally fallen. We are working toward developing a wireless, wearable, low-power fall detection sensor for elderly persons to predict when they fall.

How does this work?

Your participation will last one hour during one visit.  You will come to the SDSU HealthLINK Center, located at 6475 Alvarado Road, to perform approximately 12 walking and falling experiments.

You will receive one $25 AMAZON Gift Card after completing one hour of walking and falling trials.
