Abstract

In order to prevent falls in the elderly, it is important to collect and analyze data for the standing motion. This study proposes the measurement and diagnosis system for grasping the decline in athletic ability due to aging of the elderly. And it is planed to install the system at toilet to collect the human standing motion in daily life. As an initial stage for constructing a system, Kinect V2 and Wii board are applied to measure the standing motion of 10 young subject persons from the chair / toilet under three conditions in this report. The experiment results show a significant difference in the standing time at the case of standing from the toilets with different heights under the two conditions. In addition, there was no significant difference in the ratio of the maximum floor reaction force under the same conditions. As the future work, it is necessary to collect data on standing motions for middle-aged and elderly people other than young people.
