A METHOD FOR GAIT TRAINING AND POSTURAL BALANCE

摘要

PURPOSE: A method for gait training and posture balance is provided to give information on posture balance to the elderly and patients and to prevent safety accidents due to collision with obstacles. CONSTITUTION: A method for gait training and posture balance allows a user to measure the unbalance of the right and left and front and back of his or her body and to adjust the height of the right and left and front and back of a horizontal support rod which supports the arms and legs of the user. The method for gait training and posture balance senses the walking direction or walking speed of the user through sensor units installed inside and outside the support rod and adjusts the running direction and speed of wheels. [Reference numerals] (AA) Step of measuring the activation state of a load through both horizontal support rods which support a user; (BB) Step of adjusting the incline of and relative height of both support rods according to a measured load; (CC) Step of sensing by the walking direction of a user through sensor units installed inside and outside the support rod and adjusting the running direction of wheels; (DD) Step of adjusting the running direction of a walker using a sensor unit installed outside the support rod; (EE) Step of adjusting the running speed of a walker by sensing the walking speed of a pedestrian using a sensor unit installed inside the support rod
