Abstract

In this paper, gait motions with a three-wheeled walker were measured and analyzed, when the rear caster of the walker is pivotable or not. From the results, when the rear caster is pivotable, rotational motions of the walker and the waist, which were different from natural rotation of the waist during normal gait motion, were observed.
