Abstract
The purpose of this study is to development of the camera shake reduction appliance using Ti-Ni superelasticitc alloy. The superelastic component of the appliance was made from fourteen Ti-Ni wires of 1.0mm in diameter and 170mm in length. The components were arranged on the waist belt and arm belt. The elastic components support the arm by the power of about 9N. The transformation temperatures were measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). From DSC measurement, this alloy showed the superelastic behavior at room temperature. The maximum load of the aid for camera shake reduction is 4.1N. The camera shake was reduced by the appliance.
