Phone falling detection

[Hrishi]

What code do you need for your phone to detect whether its falling or not

[SteveJG]

Perhaps try this with a run in Background extension might work. You need either an accelerometer or orientation sensor or gyroscope. This example uses an accelerometer.

Lack of moov with accelerometre

Here is an algorithm to detect a fall using an accelerometer. Try that with App Inventor to detect a fall. You can code the AI blocks. Here is an app that can be used to determine if the Android moves during a 30 second period using the accellerator. [movement] [30secmovement] The sensitivity set for x and y acceleration (0.4 and -0.4) works with the hardware in my Android 8.1 tablet. With these settings, if the Android doesn’t move (sitting on a desk perhaps); it says so. If the app i…

You will need to adapt the code using an accelerometer for your falling phone situation (actually code used to detect a fall person is the same as the developer can only detect a fall in that case only if the person has a phone in the hands or on their person,

The app would have to run in the Background and the phone turned on.

Thank you! but can you possibly give me some sample code for that

[Hrishi]

also can you try to see if it is possible to get an ai voice to to talk in a phone call

[Hrishi]

Thank you!

There are Blocks in the supplied link along with an aia. How to use it with a background extension I don't know. See IToo for one possibility. [FREE] Background Tasks: Itoo

Here is another possibility related to a phone that starts its fall with it's
screen not facing down but ends up facing down during or at the end of the fall How to trigger something if device is facing down might work if the code is run in the background.

Thank you!
