Assessment

Primary outcomes

Basic subject information (age, height, weight, medical history, current medical history)
Subject's physical function evaluation (Brunnstrom stage, joint mobility, muscle strength, balance ability, etc.)
Test data (plantar pressure center position, area of center of gravity sway, stability limit)
Images and video recordings of the test
The medical records will be used as the experimental data for the basic information and physical function evaluation.

Interventions/Control_1

1. static training system effectiveness test
Objective: To test whether the static balance ability can be improved by improving the Sensory Reweighting ability.
Duration: 14 minutes
Experimental condition: Standing position
Experimental method:
Subjects performed static balance training using the system for 40 seconds x 5 times, and their sensory reweighing ability and static balance ability were compared before and after the training.
Measurement items:
Plantar pressure center position, area of center of gravity sway in static standing position, video and audio during the test

Interventions/Control_2

2. dynamic training system effectiveness test
Objective: To verify whether dynamic balance ability can be improved by extending the stability limit through load transfer training.
Duration: 10 minutes
Experimental condition: Standing
Experimental method:
Play a game in a VR space while using a dynamic balance training system, and compare the dynamic balance ability before and after the game.
Measurement items:
Plantar pressure center position, area of maximum center of gravity shift in front-back and left-right directions, video and audio during the test

Interventions/Control_3

3. A validation test will be conducted to verify the usefulness of the static training system. The experiment will be conducted without the vibration of the vibrating belt. After the completion of each condition, the static balance and sensory reweighting abilities measured in the Pre-test and Post-test will be compared and evaluated respectively. (40 seconds x 5 times)
