  • The most of the elders or patients that use common walkers do not have enough physical strength in the legs and cannot walk for a long time where they want to go. So it is necessary to take rests and highly required to develop a multi-function walker that can guide walking safely for weak elders or patients with IT application products at the same time. This study is focused on the walkers for elders with bent back and the design to grant new values for elders to overcome limitations of existing walkers.
