One major cause of falls among the elderly is reduced balance ability associated with aging, which has been shown to affect not only the decline in strength and other types of motor function, but also postural control through declining sensory function. We developed a new device for evaluating tactile sensation in the toes and soles of elderly adults while standing. We analyzed dynamic standing balance in the elderly and the young groups for using a movable platform. Moreover, based on these evaluations, we developed a method for applying vibratory sense stimulation to the soles to indicate to the user how to shift the center of gravity to an optimal position while standing or walking. The present results indicated that the vibratory stimulation inside the shoes was an effective technique for assisting elderly individuals in correcting postural instability, particularly forward/backward body sway.

老年人中跌倒的一个主要原因是与衰老相关的平衡能力降低，这不仅会影响强度和其他类型的运动功能的下降，而且还会影响姿势控制，从而通过下降。我们开发了一种新的装置，以评估老年成年人的脚趾和脚掌的触觉感觉。我们分析了老年人和年轻群体中使用可移动平台的动态平衡。此外，根据这些评估，我们开发了一种将振动感刺激应用于鞋底的方法，以向用户指示如何在站立或行走时将重心转移到最佳位置。目前的结果表明，鞋子内部的振动刺激是一种有效的技术，可帮助老年人纠正姿势不稳定性，尤其是前进/向后的身体摇摆。
