In this paper, a study on sonification of manual wheelchair movements is presented. The aim was to contribute to both rehabilitation contexts and in wheelchair sports contexts, by providing meaningful auditory feedback for training of manual wheelchair operation. A mapping approach was used where key parameters of manual wheelchair maneuvering were directly mapped to different sound models. The...
OBJECTIVES To test the hypothesis that powered wheelchair users who receive the Wheelchair Skills Training Program (WSTP) improve their wheelchair skills in comparison with a control group that receives standard care, and secondarily to assess goal achievement, satisfaction with training, retention, injury rate, confidence with wheelchair use, and participation. DESIGN Randomized controlled t...
OBJECTIVE To determine the best test performance and feasibility using a Graded Arm Cranking Test vs a Graded Wheelchair Propulsion Test in young people with spina bifida who use a wheelchair, and to determine the reliability of the best test. DESIGN Validity and reliability study. SUBJECTS Young people with spina bifida who use a wheelchair. METHODS Physiological responses were measured ...
This poster presents results obtained from experiments of driving a brain-actuated simulated wheelchair that incorporates the shared-control intelligence method. The simulated wheelchair is controlled offline using band power features. The task is to drive the wheelchair along a corridor avoiding two obstacles. We have analyzed data from 4 naïve subjects during 25 sessions carried out in two da...
Self-checkout is the emergent/emerging retail technology wherein users (shoppers) check out their own items using an interactive kiosk. A dramatic growth is anticipated in the prevalence of self-checkout systems in retail environments. A study was conducted to develop and evaluate a redesign of a self-checkout system with a focus on issues related to physical accessibility for wheelchair users....
encouraging an active lifestyle is an essential part of successful rehabilitation programs, and the link between physical activity and quality of life (qol) is well established among patients with mobility disorders. biomechanical aspects of wheelchair design play an important role in physical activity and social participation of disabled individuals. this review focuses on key biomechanical fe...
The design of brain-computer interface for the wheelchair for physically disabled people is presented. The design of the proposed system is based on receiving, processing, and classification of the electroencephalographic (EEG) signals and then performing the control of the wheelchair. The number of experimental measurements of brain activity has been done using human control commands of the wh...
A wheelchair user's mobility may be hampered by narrow doorways and restricted turning spaces. Mobility may be improved by undertaking expensive building alterations in the wheelchair user's own home and work environment. However, other environments, including modes of public transport, may still present considerable difficulties. One way of improving mobility is to reduce the overall width of ...
The electric wheelchair is an effective machine for people with lower limb disability. The user controls the wheelchair by a joystick that helps the user to navigate the wheelchair along the desired path. Suppose the user on the wheelchair wants to operate the computer for his jobs or enjoyment, it is preferable for the user to be able to operate the computer without transferring from the wheel...
PURPOSE This study was conducted to compare the performance of three types of chairs in a low-resource setting. The larger goal was to provide information which will enable more effective use of limited funds by wheelchair manufacturers and suppliers in low-resource settings. METHODS The Motivation Rough Terrain and Whirlwind Rough Rider were compared in six skills tests which participants co...
