Description

應用三軸加速計與時間序列判斷之跌倒偵測方法 Fall detection method using three-axis accelerometer and time series judgment

本發明係有關一種應用三軸加速計與時間序列判斷之跌倒偵測方法,尤指一種兼具可在跌倒前發出警告訊號、即時偵測提高安全性、可減少誤判率與電路精簡易於實施之應用三軸加速計與時間序列判斷之跌倒偵測方法。 The invention relates to a fall detection method using a three-axis accelerometer and a time series judgment, in particular, a warning signal can be issued before a fall, an instant detection can improve safety, a false positive rate can be reduced, and a circuit is simple and simple to implement. A three-axis accelerometer and a time series judgment fall detection method.

目前已有許多跌倒偵測方法,這些方法可以分成影像辨識與感測器偵測兩大類,其中感測器偵測方法大部分是利用擷取監護者所穿戴的三軸加速度資訊來判斷是否有跌倒狀況發生,當跌倒發生時,監護者所穿戴的三軸加速度計因瞬間碰撞導致三軸加速度資訊劇烈變化,再透過單一門檻值比較判斷後,完成跌倒偵測,此方法易受雜訊與姿態影響導致誤判。 There are many fall detection methods. These methods can be divided into two types: image recognition and sensor detection. Most of the sensor detection methods use the three-axis acceleration information worn by the guard to determine whether there is any The fall condition occurs. When the fall occurs, the three-axis accelerometer worn by the guardian causes the triaxial acceleration information to change drastically due to the instantaneous collision, and then the fall threshold detection is completed after the single threshold value comparison judgment. This method is susceptible to noise and The influence of posture leads to misjudgment.

由於跌倒發生的過程是一種連續時間的動作,中華民國發明專利第I419085號之跌倒偵測方法是擷取連續複數筆加速度資料,將該連續複數筆加速度資料代入一跌倒比較單元,判斷是否滿足跌倒條件,以產生跌倒偵測訊號。然而,該方法必須間隔一段時間才能判斷一次,無法連續即時判斷,間隔時間的空窗期即產生跌倒之人身危險性。 Since the process of falling is a continuous time action, the fall detection method of the Republic of China invention patent No. I419085 captures continuous multiple acceleration data, and substitutes the continuous multiple acceleration data into a fall comparison unit to determine whether the fall is satisfied. Condition to generate a fall detection signal. However, the method must be judged once at intervals, and it cannot be judged continuously and continuously. The empty window period of the interval is the personal danger of falling.

重點在於,這些方法屬於跌倒發生後的偵測,無法避免傷害發生,只能降低傷害程度,如果能在跌倒過程提早偵測跌倒發生,進而採 取保護措施,將能直接避免傷害發生,達到跌倒預測的目的。 The point is that these methods are detected after the fall, and it is impossible to avoid the damage. It can only reduce the damage. If it can detect the fall early in the fall process, then Taking protective measures will directly prevent the occurrence of injuries and achieve the purpose of fall prediction.

有鑑於此,必需研發出可解決上述習用缺點之技術。 In view of this, it is necessary to develop a technique that can solve the above disadvantages.

本發明之目的,在於提供一種應用三軸加速計與時間序列判斷之跌倒偵測方法,其兼具可在跌倒前發出警告訊號、即時偵測提高安全性、可減少誤判率與電路精簡易於實施等優點。特別是,本發明所欲解決之問題係在於傳統跌倒偵測方法屬於跌倒發生後的偵測,無法避免傷害發生,只能降低傷害程度,無法在跌倒過程提早偵測跌倒發生,進而採取保護措施,將能直接避免傷害發生,達到跌倒預測的目的等問題。 The object of the present invention is to provide a fall detection method using a three-axis accelerometer and a time series judgment, which can simultaneously issue a warning signal before the fall, improve the security by instant detection, reduce the false positive rate, and simplify the circuit. Implementation and other advantages. In particular, the problem to be solved by the present invention is that the conventional fall detection method belongs to the detection after the fall occurs, and the damage cannot be avoided, and the damage degree can only be reduced, and the fall cannot be detected early in the fall process, and then the protection measures are taken. It will be able to directly avoid the occurrence of injuries and achieve the purpose of the fall prediction.

假設複數個低通加速度強度(t)數值係介於10.5~6.5間之範圍,並假設當低通加速度強度(t)數值為7係跌倒碰撞已經發生,收集跌倒樣本100筆,每一筆有10個取樣點,以及沒有跌倒樣本100筆,每一筆一樣有10個取樣點,則參閱第九A圖,其為本發明之門檻值之訓練過程的錯誤率,一開始只有一個比較器時,錯誤率為0.1250,接著使用到兩個時, 錯誤率也為0.1250,接著使用到三、四、和五個比較器時,錯誤率為0.0250、0.0750、和0(最後可整理成第九B圖)。再請參閱第十A及第十B圖,其為40筆的測試(包括20筆跌倒與20筆非跌倒),使用五個比較器時,誤差來到0.1,也就是有90%正確率,意味著只要使用一半取樣點,例如在時間t-5時就可以預測t時間會發生跌倒,提前完成跌倒預測。 Assume a plurality of low-pass acceleration intensities ( t ) The numerical system is in the range of 10.5 to 6.5, and assumes the low-pass acceleration intensity ( t ) A value of 7 series of fall collisions has occurred, collecting 100 pens of falling samples, 10 sampling points per pen, and 100 pens without falling samples, each with 10 sampling points, see Figure 9A, The error rate of the training process for the threshold of the present invention is that when there is only one comparator at the beginning, the error rate is 0.1250, and then when two are used, the error rate is also 0.1250, and then the comparison is performed to three, four, and five. The error rate is 0.0250, 0.0750, and 0 (finally compiled into ninth B). Please refer to the 10th and 10th B pictures, which are 40 tests (including 20 falls and 20 non-falls). When using five comparators, the error comes to 0.1, which is 90% correct. This means that as long as half of the sampling points are used, for example, at time t-5, it is predicted that a fall will occur at time t, and a fall prediction will be completed in advance.
