In this regard, assistive technology which aims to identify fall events at real time can reduce the rate of impairments and mortality. This study offer a literature research reference value for bioengineers for further research. Much of the past and the current fall detection research, the vital signals features and the way features are extracted and fed to a classifier are introduced. The study concludes with an assessment of the current technologies highlighting their critical limitations along with suggestions for future research direction in this rapidly developing field of study.
