SafeFall: AI-Powered Fall Detection & Alert System with Python & Computer Vision.

What you’ll learn

Understand the fundamentals of fall detection using computer vision and its significance in enhancing elderly care, workplace safety, and real-time monitoring.

Set up a Python development environment with essential libraries, including OpenCV and MediaPipe, for real-time human pose estimation and fall detection.

Explore the YOLOv8n model for accurate and efficient person detection in live video streams.

Utilize MediaPipe to extract human skeletal key points for precise fall detection.

Learn preprocessing techniques for video frames, including normalization and resizing, to improve model performance and real-time processing efficiency.

Implement real-time visualization of detection outputs by annotating video frames with bounding boxes, skeletal structures, and fall alerts.

Address challenges such as occlusions, varying camera angles, and differences in body postures to improve detection accuracy.

Develop an MQTT-based real-time alert system that notifies caregivers or emergency responders when a fall is detected.

Integrate a SQL database for storing user details, system logs, and incident reports for data analysis and tracking.

Deploy the system using Flask for backend operations, ensuring smooth data flow and API-based communication with mobile or web applications.

Requirements

Basic understanding of Python programming (helpful but not mandatory).

A laptop or desktop computer with internet access [Windows OS with Minimum 4GB of RAM).
No prior knowledge of AI or Machine Learning is required-this course is beginner-friendly.

Enthusiasm to learn and build practical projects using AI and IoT tools.
