1. Outline and Features
Outline
As people age, they experience changes in posture, movement, and senses. The posture becomes
more stooped and the joints also change, making movement unsteady. Sensory changes alter their
social life.
The aged simulation set lets you experience the inconveniences in day-to-day life from the physical
changes brought by aging. You may be shocked by the physical inconveniences you experience
when wearing the set. Remember that these are not sudden changes, but changes that occur
gradually with age. The simulation set is only a tool -- actual aging does not necessarily feel like
attaching restrictors or weights to your body or wearing goggles. Please remember these points
when using the set.
Features
1. Adjusting the extensively placed hook-and-loop fasteners straps can enable the set to be
worn by trainees of various physiques.
2. It is hard for the trainee to move the joints when wearing knee and elbow restrictors. The
trainee can also simulate reduced muscle power with wrist and ankle weights attached, and
a reduced sense of touch as well as difficulty in grasping objects while wearing the gloves.
3. A stooped posture can be experienced by wearing the back protector.
4. Loss of peripheral vision and changes in visual function due to cataracts can be simulated
by wearing the goggles.
5. Earplugs are specially created to block out the high-frequency sound range. Wearing these
simulates presbycusis, which makes it difficult to hear high-frequency sounds.
