Research Abstract |
Using of the elderly simulated experience tools are an effective means in understanding the inconvenience of activities by the elderly. However, most of the current tools are difficult to experience properly the elderly behavior because they are in the static structure consisting mainly of motion limited range of motion by a method using an orthotic device. The purposes of this study were to develop newly designed elderly simulated experience tool with active structure and execute kinetic and kinematic analyses of level walking which wearing the renewed tool. The aims of this study were to clarify the relationship between the body alignment of the elderlies and the developed tool, and to realize the wearing reproducibility and ease of the renewed tool.
