View Article and Find Full Text PDFMedical device development involves user safety, and it is governed by specific regulations. The failure of medical device developers to consider the influence of users, the environment, and related organizations on product development during the design and development process can result in added risks to the use of medical technologies. Although many studies have examined the medical device development process, there has been no systematic and comprehensive assessment of the key factors affecting medical device development.

Falling movements are recognized by comparing the acceleration and orientation of a wearer's head using prespecified thresholds. The proposed system consists of a triaxial accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer; as such, a Madgwick's filter is adopted to improve the accuracy of the estimation of orientation.

Previous studies mostly used microphone signal processing to perform target speech separation and analysis, such as feature recognition through a large amount of training data and supervised machine learning. The method was suitable for stationary noise suppression, but relatively limited for non-stationary noise and difficult to meet the real-time processing requirement.
