Abstract
An impact detection methodology is disclosed. Systems and methods can be utilized to detect impacts of concern such as collisions, falls, or other incidents. Systems and methods can be utilized to monitor an area and detect falls or collisions of an individual, for instance, as may require intervention to aid the subject. A system can include two or more accelerometers and a controller. The accelerometers can be in communication with the structure (e.g., within or on the walls or floor of a structure) and can monitor the structure for vibrations. The accelerometers can be coupled to a controller that is configured to process data obtained from the accelerometers and provide output with regard to the force and/or location of an impact within the structure.
