Recently, the frequency in use of electric adjustable bed is going up by an increase in the elderly population. In bad ergonomic design for an electric adjustable bed causes some problems in the aspects of usability and safety. In particular, lots of accidents came from going up or going down an electric adjustable bed. In that case, the height of bed is very important factor for preventing an accident. This problem is related to its anthropometric factors. Therefore we carried out its anthropometric analysis and old people's standing action according the height of electric adjustable bed as an experimental study. As a result, we proposed some anthropometric design criteria and identified the effect of bed height when old people use it.
