| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
One of the most popular reasons that fall down of elderly person is a gap of the center of balance due to power down of muscle for aging and outside walking. Most elderly people have outside walking and they tend to leaning their posture outside. That is also factor of fall down. So we began to product new rehabilitation system that treated a gap of the center of the balance. We produced High-Performance training shoes that show status of walking balance. Further, we also produced walking assist system of human sole distribution from High-Performance Insole. We can change stiffness of High-Performance Insole corresponded to human sole distribution. So we can correct subject’s walking form for rehabilitation. We evaluated pressure distribution during walking by using newly produced High-Performance Training Shoes. Further, we compared two distribution patterns between normal and corrective pattern. After comparison, we clarify that the assist system reforms subject’s posture inside.
