| Research Abstract |
The present study focuses on walking on stairs with the prosthetic leg as an example of higher ADL. We suppose that it is important to improve easiness of walking on stairs. This study, therefore, aims to development of the prosthesis leg with smooth gait in stairs. As the first step, effect of the inertia property on easiness of stair ascent was investigated by conducting experiments with an expert user of the prosthesis. In addition, gaits with the various inertia properties were investigated. As a result, it was found that easiness of walking was changed widely by inertia property of the prosthesis.
