Abstract: Linking every aspect of our lives could have immediate positive effects on society. A basic gadget can be included in the phrase "Internet of Things" if we give it "computational intelligence" and connect it to the network. In addition, improving features of the fundamental design, the "smart" gadget is typically portable and a option that is more affordable, effective, and has the potential to grow in functionality over time. IoT is changing our houses to better meet each person's needs and desires. The goal of our IoT-based fall detection system project for smart home environments is still similar to this, but it has more room to grow in terms of usefulness. Not only would this gadget sound an alarm in the event that an elderly person sustains injuries from falls but can also be applied to identify costly things that fall when being similar to stores that keep opulent and high-end merchandise on display for customers. Additionally, this prototype can be incorporated to learn popular interaction models. nowadays days in IoT devices, like video monitoring and voice help.

Keywords: IoT, Fall Detection, Video Monitoring, Sensor Integration.
