Abstract
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. So we began to product new rehabilitation system that treat a gap of the center of the balance. We produced high-performance training shoes that shows status of walking balance. A method of communication that show status of walking balance is using tablet, Head Mounted Display and WiPort. The software of those devices are android because it is very easy to use. Further, we also produced an evaluation device for walking due to clear basic characteristics of the developed shoes. A source of power of this device is air pressure that we can revive smooth action of human. We try to control this device using method of master-slave control. Master device is goniometer that measure human joint angle. By using the master-slave system, we would not only evaluate high-performance training shoes but also analysis complicated walking of human.
