Parkinson's disease (PD) is one of the long-term regressive disorders of the central nervous system that primarily affects humans' nerve systems, causing frequent falls that can even result in fatalities or put sufferers in dangerous situations. To address this problem, we have put forth a concept that tracks patient falls and alerts the caregiver or family member using a message, call, or alarm to prevent deaths. The wearable fall- detection system for Parkinson's disease sufferers built on a wi-fi module is the main goal of our research and development efforts. The results of an accelerometer, oximeter, and pressure sensor that are uploaded to the Blynk cloud through NodeMCU- ESP32 were used to properly track patient falls.
