「We are researching evaluation methods for falls that occur when older people and certified persons requiring long-term care use rollators. Specifically, using human body models that reproduce the center-of-gravity position, mass and range of motion of each body part, we recreated conditions simulating actual falls and measured and analyzed the movements of the human body models and target equipment under various types and directions of falls.」
At the Institute for Senior Futures, recreated, measured and analyzed rollator falls using human body models. - FY2019First statedAnnual report
