Abstract
In this paper, In this paper, we developed the new walker which enable person have hemiplegia to crutch walking training in hospital ward without monitoring. The hemiplegia patients need crutch walking training until leaving hospital. Though it is difficult to all patients train enough crutch walking because of limited rehabilitation time. Our walker has three advantages. First, it do not contact with the patients arm, leg and crutch when crutch-walking training. We designed the walker using the human body measurements database. Second, when patient falls, the brake will work automatically. Third, it follows a gait, without using a patient's hand. We investigated about safety of gait with walker.
