Abstract(in English) We create a system that aims to maintain the health of the elderly through sightseeing of nature using virtual reality. In this system, it is necessary to detect the motion in the real space and reflect it to the walking in the virtual reality space. Although there have been previous studies on detecting walking in a standing position, when considering the use by the elderly, it is desirable to use the foot-stepping motion while seated because of the risk of falling due to staggering. In this study, we develop a system to detect foot-stepping motion while seated using an acceleration sensor module and evaluate the system. As a result, the classification accuracy was 73.8% for the method using threshold and 74.7% for the method using machine learning.
