Enhancing Fall Risk Assessment: Instrumenting Vision with Deep Learning During Walks

Introduction Fall events are common across various clinical populations, with usual risk assessments including visual observation of individual gait. However, gait observation assessments are typically confined to laboratory settings, involving standardized walking protocol tests to identify potential defects that might increase fall risk. Subtle d...
