“…Furthermore, the materials chosen can have an impact on the simplicity of maintenance, as some materials may have specialized cleaning or care processes.  Integration of Sensors and Electronics:To enable autonomous navigation and enhanced functionality, intelligent robotic wheelchairs frequently combine a variety of sensors, electronics, and control systems [7]. The chassis materials must be compatible with the integration of these technologies.…”

This research paper introduces a comprehensive approach for evaluating material alternatives in the design of low cost robotic wheelchair chassis, incorporating a combined CRITIC (Criteria Importance through Intercriteria Correlation), EDAS (Evaluation based on Distance from Average Solution), and COPRAS (Complex Proportional Assessment) framework. Material selection has a significant impact on robotic wheelchair performance and longevity, offering issues due to many criteria and sophisticated decision-making in engineering design. The proposed framework solves these issues by combining three well-known multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) techniques by considering 7 criteria and 12 potential alternate materials. CRITIC assesses the relevance of criteria, EDAS rates material alternatives, and COPRAS computes comprehensive performance ratings while taking interdependencies into account. Wheelchair Chassis Materials are assessed based on SOLIDWORKS analysis for mechanical qualities and online B2B market data for cost, weight, and other relevant factors. Gray cast iron emerges as the most favorable choice for the robotic wheelchair chassis, showcasing its exceptional balance of attributes. This study adds important insights to material selection for complex engineering systems and assistive technology design, resulting in better wheelchair design and user experience.

“…Connecting users as many as possible is the key to the road to universal design for wayfinding design. To assess this aim, one study examined an inclusive design approach in the communities of universities in indoor wayfinding [1][2][3][4]. Through this study, researchers developed an application for students and visitors in the university for navigation, and the results included students with disabilities; this application is especially useful in unknown places.…”

Up to today, we are living in an environment surrounded by buildings, including shopping malls, museums, university campuses, and also other types of public and private construction. The purpose of this paper is to focus on current studies on accessible wayfinding; also, this paper includes research aimed at people's mental stages during the wayfinding process. There are 38 papers that have been selected and reviewed in this paper. At the end of this paper, the direction and future investigation of accessible wayfinding will be discussed.

“…However, these semi-permanent obstacles unlike the temporary ones would not be discussed in how should be redesigned in this paper. Also, there are smart wheelchairs under developing [3,4], the cost for these wheelchairs is under concerning for MIP with lower-income [5]. Though there are variant studies on accessible or inclusive design, the key lacking is the number of participants with disabilities [6].…”

The concept of enhancing public responsibility to people with disabilities is to increase general awareness to understand the needs of motor-impaired people (MIP). The facts of the daily experience and possible difficulties of MIP were transformed into a tabletop game. In order to be prepared for the aging population happening in China, Flat Earth was designed as one solution that can be delivered to the public to improve individuals' cognition of disabilities by playing as a character with limited motor ability in Flat Earth.
