The present paper discusses the use of a Kalman filter-based method to identify fall events during rock climbing activity. The proposed technique relies on the acquisition of three-axis acceleration and altitude by means of a data logger inte- grated within the climber’s sit harness. Time-domain results exhibit the working principle of the algorithm. Furthermore, the data provided by eight climbers is analysed and discussed to validate the method.

Abstract
The present paper discusses the use of a Kalman filter-based method to identify fall events during rock climbing activity. The proposed technique relies on the acquisition of three-axis acceleration and altitude by means of a data logger inte- grated within the climber’s sit harness. Time-domain results exhibit the working principle of the algorithm. Furthermore, the data provided by eight climbers is analysed and discussed to validate the method.Pubblicazioni consigliate
