Patent attributes
A fall detection-based help-seeking method and an electronic device, to improve accuracy of fall detection performed by an electronic device and reduce a probability of mistakenly triggering automatic help-seeking of the electronic device. A solution includes: the electronic device includes a motion sensor and the motion sensor includes an acceleration sensor or a gyro sensor. The electronic device collects a first motion parameter of a user by using the motion sensor. The electronic device obtains a fall confidence of the first motion parameter if the first motion parameter matches a first preset fall parameter, where the fall confidence of the first motion parameter is used to represent a probability that the first motion parameter is a motion parameter collected when the user falls. The electronic device sends help-seeking information if the fall confidence of the first motion parameter is greater than a preset confidence threshold.
