Fall injuries in the elderly have become a major threat to the health and safety of the older adults in China. Many scholars have carried out relevant research on the interventions and early warning of falls in the elderly. Assessing the risk of falls in the elderly by constructing fall risk assessment scales, and identifying and alerting fall risk based on video surveillance and patterns. Vibration analysis, human posture and motion and other methods play important roles in preventing falls and fall injuries. Based on the analysis of the existing literature, this paper aims to provide reference for further research on the fall intervention and identification technology for preventing falls in the elderly.
