  • Elderly care is becoming a relevant issue with the increase of population ageing. Fall injuries, with their impact on social and healthcare cost, represent one of the biggest concerns over the years. Researchers are focusing their attention on several fall-detection algorithms. In this paper, we present a deep-learning solution for automatic fall detection from RGB videos. The proposed approach achieved a mean recall of 0.916, prompting the possibility of translating this approach in the actual monitoring practice. Moreover to enable the scientific community making research on the topic the dataset used for our experiments will be released. This could enhance elderly people safety and quality of life, attenuating risks during elderly activities of daily living with reduced healthcare costs as a final result.
