Abstract: Being in the speed century, people around the world are busy scheduling every day and therefore, it is impossible to spend enough time with the elderly and people with disabilities or people who have a chronic illness. These persons need a lot more attention and care because they cannot cope with the daily activities like a healthy person would. Daily monitoring and assistance of elderly or disabled people is a very important task, both in the current activity, or, especially when emergencies can occur. Fortunately, we can easily use today's technologies, which are constantly developing to be able to monitor them remotely. This paper tries to find a solution to reduce cases of fatality due to accidents, by using advanced technologies of today, e.g. smartphones, fast communications. The use of these technologies can provide permanent monitoring of the elderly and persons with disabilities, without bounding their mobility and without affecting their quality of life. In this way, if emergency situations arise for the elderly or people with disabilities or chronic diseases, measures can be taken as soon as possible. The development of a mobile application capable to monitor the occurrence of accidents for the above-mentioned persons is obviously a help granted to the doctors involved in ensuring their health. Thus, the main objective of the application is to detect the accidental falls of the persons in the shortest possible time. Another objective is to provide an application that runs in the background of the mobile operating system, using as little as possible the power supply.
