Abstract

The invention relates to equipment for judging falling down of old people. The equipment comprises an electroencephalogram sensor, a myoelectricity sensor, a gyroscope and a pressure sensor which are connected with a central control chip, the electroencephalogram sensor is used for receiving electroencephalogram signals of a user, the myoelectricity sensor is used for receiving surface myoelectricity signals of upper humerus and quadriceps femoris muscles of the user, and the pressure sensor is used for receiving pressure signals of the outer sides of arms and thighs of the user; the central control chip is used for receiving and processing signals of the electroencephalogram sensor, the myoelectricity sensor and the pressure sensor and judging whether the user falls down or not. According to the equipment and the method, multiple sensors can be combined with multiple data for analysis, and the situation that a user tends to fall down but stands stably or falls down due to misjudgment is avoided.
