Assisted Control Mode for a Smart Wheelchair

Abstract: Our aim is to implement a force feedback joystick on a powered wheelchair provided with a set of range sensors. This system is intended to people with disability for whom a traditional joystick control (or any other adapted sensor control) is difficult or impossible because of too severe motor disabilities. The force feedback is calculated according to the proximity of the obstacles and helps the user, without forcing him, to move towards the free direction. Adopted methodology aims at circumventing certain ob… Show more

“…This proportional type of force feedback for manual joystick operation was previously discussed. The technology is still in development and has not been tested with the specified population of users with severe motor impairments [25][26] or in real environments [24][25][26].…”

“…Interface adaptations have been made to compensate for physical limitations, including decreased upper-limb strength or range of motion, spasticity, or tremor [22][23]. Haptic or force feedback joysticks have been used in collision-avoidance systems to help users navigate away from obstacles [24][25][26]. Haptic interfaces interact with a user's touch and kinesthetic systems through force or other mechanical stimuli [27] and passively or actively guide the user away from obstacles.…”

“…Some of the research projects mentioned in 2005 have continued to influence research [13][14][15][16], while other new platforms have emerged [17][18][19] and some 4,018 papers have been published between 2005 and 2013. Despite this significant research, little has been done to bring smart PWCs to the end-users, according to Garcia et al [14].…”
