Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The aim of our study is to develop a new assistance system using a metal hydride actuator during sit-to-stand movement in toilet. We measured the leg muscle activity (iEMG), the head movement, the foot pressure distributions, the sitting pressure distributions. This study was carried out to analyze the human sit-to-stand performance with changing a toilet seat angle. The experimental results showed that the head movement become stable at the low seat angle in standing performance. And, the subjects’ impression of the performance increased higher at the low seat angle. In conclusions, the sit-to-stand motion is influenced by the toilet seat angle.
