Innovative Power Wheelchair Control Interface: A Proof-of-Concept Study.
Some people without independent mobility are candidates for powered mobility but are unable to use a traditional power wheelchair joystick. This proof-of-concept study tested and further developed an innovative method of driving power wheelchairs for people whose impairments prevent them from operating commercial wheelchair controls. Our concept, Self-referenced Personal Orthotic Omni-purpose C...
متن کاملLongitudinal assessment of vibrations during manual and power wheelchair driving over select sidewalk surfaces.
Wheelchair users rely on their wheelchairs for mobility for extended periods of time every day. According to the International Standards Organization 2631-1 standard on human vibration, individuals in a seated position when exposed to whole-body vibrations (WBV) are at risk of injury. This study evaluated vibration exposure during manual and power wheelchair driving over nine sidewalk surfaces ...
متن کاملIndividualized Performance Quantification of Power Wheelchair Driving
Power wheelchair users may present secondary impairments that inhibit effective joystick control. Accordingly, driving assessments are needed to ensure the safety of both the drivers and their surroundings. We introduce a quantitative method to evaluate power wheelchair driving performance using the Markov decision process. Our dynamic, stochastic approach supplements previous quantitative eval...
متن کاملwuthering heights and the concept of marality/a sociological study of the novel
to discuss my point, i have collected quite a number of articles, anthologies, and books about "wuthering heights" applying various ideas and theories to this fantastic story. hence, i have come to believe that gadamer and jauss are rightful when they claim that "the individaul human mind is the center and origin of all meaning," 3 that reading literature is a reader-oriented activity, that it ...
15 صفحه اولPower output for wheelchair driving on a treadmill compared with arm crank ergometry.
OBJECTIVES The limiting factors with regard to power output available for wheelchair ambulation have not been identified. The aim of the present study was to correlate power output during wheelchair driving with (i) power output and oxygen uptake during arm crank ergometry and (ii) arm muscle strength. METHODS Eleven disabled men were examined for maximal power output (POmax) during wheelchai...
