The purposes of this study were to propose an evaluation method of muscle strength margin for a daily life and to evaluate the method through developing a measurement device of muscle strength margin. Through previous study survey, the followings were proposed: 1. squat-to-stand motion is appropriate as a test motion, 2. the sum of hip and knee joint moments is appropriate as an index of muscle strength, 3. the ratio of muscle strength to minimum required muscle strength is appropriate as an index of muscle strength margin. A measurement device of muscle strength margin based on the proposed method was developed with MEMS inertial sensors. The device could sense the difference of the muscle strength margin between the young and elderly. In conclusion, the method/device of this study was found to be an useful health care tool.
