Standing assist chairs to assist rising to a standing position have been researched and developed, and several products are now commercially available. Unfortunately, they cannot be said to be entirely successful. One reason is that the standing assist chair has been developed from an exclusively manufacturing perspective - the engineering point of view - and often little research and development based on the user's perspective - the biomedical point of view - has been implemented. It is thought that the elderly show several features that are different from the young during rising to a standing position as a result of the physiological deterioration of their physical functions. Nevertheless, the motion properties of the elderly are only empirically known at nursing care sites. Investigations from the biomedical point of view have not yet been thoroughly conducted. This study aims to analyze the features seen in the elderly while rising to a standing position from the biomedical perspective, and to determine by experiment what form of assistance is the most appropriate for obtaining parameters for manufacturing a standing assist device.
