Abstract

This article present the alarm system of elder tumble based on ZigBee wireless sensor network technology. This core of system is MMA7260+CC2430 which is wireless RF module of three-axis accelerometer, we design it into a wearable node which collect the signal of tumble. The GPS positioning module, tumble signal and tumble location information is sent to the monitor station through the wireless network node. The system can rapidly and promptly help elder stand up, it protect the elder from long lying and have them stand away from life risk.
