AbstractA variety of transfer devices are developed to provide convenience to caregivers (Lee et al., 2020). Although there are many types of transfer devices, caregivers experience a physical burden when handling them. This study aims to analyze the physical burden through EMG measurement and Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) when using three types of transfer devices, including a transfer device with robot technology.Keywords: care robot, physical burden, transfer devices, EMG, Rapid Entire Body Assessment
