A human airbag system based on MEMS motion sensing technology.
Falls and fall-induced fractures are very common among the elderly. Hip fractures account for most of the deaths and costs of all the fall-induced fractures. This dissertation presents a novel MEMS based human airbag system used as a hip protector. A Micro Inertial Measurement Unit (muIMU) which is...
