| Summary, etc. |
This research presents ViFall, an innovative IoT-based wearable system designed for<br/>real-time vital signs monitoring and fall detection, aimed at enhancing elderly care. The<br/>system utilizes an Arduino-powered device equipped with photoplethysmography (PPG)<br/>sensors to continuously monitor vital signs, which include heart rate and blood oxygen<br/>levels. In addition, an accelerometer and gyroscope are used to detect falls based on<br/>differences in movement patterns, giving a reliable fall detection mechanism. To ensure<br/>real-time communication, a GSM module is added into the device for fast sending of alerts<br/><br/>to caregivers or family members through missed calls when a fall happens. A threshold-<br/>based algorithm running on the Arduino processes the sensor data, while the NodeMCU is<br/><br/>used for wireless connectivity, ensuring smooth data transmission to remote monitoring<br/>systems. Additionally, an Android application has been developed, offering users a<br/>platform for continuous monitoring of vital signs and logging the abnormalities and falls<br/>detected into the notifications section. The system’s performance is evaluated in<br/>accordance with ISO/IEEE 11073 – 10471 software quality standards, ensuring the<br/>solution meets key quality attributes such as functionality, usability, and reliability. This<br/>comprehensive testing proved its capability to give dependable real-time vital signs<br/>monitoring and fall detection for elderly individuals, helping improve safety and allowing<br/>caregivers or family members to respond promptly to emergencies. The system achieved<br/>high performance on all metrics, with an accuracy of 93.47% showing high capability to<br/>identify fall and non-fall events. A precision of 98.18%, tells that almost all detected falls<br/>are real falls. The recall of 90.00% shows that the system successfully identified many of<br/>the actual falls, but still need more improvements. The specificity of 97.88% means the<br/><br/>system has a strong ability to identify non-fall events with minimal false alarms. The F1-<br/>Score of 93.91% suggests a good balance between precision and recall, meaning the system<br/>maintains solid performance in both detecting falls and minimizing false positives. For<br/>vital signs monitoring, based on tests conducted with 15 participants, the system achieved<br/>an average Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of 2.41 for SpO2 and 2.53 for heart rate,<br/>indicating a high level of accuracy in continuous health tracking. Overall, ViFall offers an<br/>efficient and reliable tool for elderly care, with the use of IoT and wearable technology to<br/>enhance health monitoring and emergency response. |
