| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As the later-stage elderly population will continue to grow more, “locomotive syndrome”is focused. Locomotive syndrome is a condition that reduces mobility due to musculoskeletal ambulation disorder, and it needs long-term care. As gait disorder is increasing, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) of the later-stage elderly is decreasing. In such situation, it is important that senior’s walking movement are recorded and collected. But now, it is difficult to collect data of senior’s walking movement because of motion capture is located on studio in Laboratory. Therefore, I try to design portable senior ‘s walking movement trace system.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
健康的な生活をおくる上で、歩行は欠かせない動作の一つであるが、近年、高齢化社会が進み、特に後期高齢者の筋肉減少症（サルコペニア）等に起因する歩行障害が日常生活動作能力（ADL：Activities of Daily Living）の低下につながることが指摘されるようになった。「歩行」は人間にとって重要な移動機能であり、その機能低下が生活機能の低下を招くので、その予防は重要であるとされる（※2）。そのためにも、後期高齢者の歩行データの収集は有意義であると考えた。
