Research Abstract |
(1) Hisaichi Ohnabe, Fumihiro Mizuguchi, Ikuo Yoneda and Masayuki Sato visited the following institutions in the US and did survey research regarding assistive mobility such as wheelchairs. ・University of Pittsburgh, Department of Rehabilitation Science and Technology and Bioengjneering, Human Engineering Research Laboratories ・RESNA (Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Society of North America) ・The Center for Universal Design (CEUD), North Carolina State University ・University of Virginia, Rehabilitation Engineering Center ・Rehabilitation R&D Center, VA Palo Alto HCS and Stanford University (2) Hisaichi Ohnabe, Tokuji Okada, Fumihiro Mizuguchi, Tadashi Hatakenaka visited the following institutions in Europe and did survey research regarding assistive mobility such as wheelchairs. ・CLAWAR (International Conference on Climbing and Walking Robots and the Supporting Technologies for Mobile Machine) 2001 (Karlsruhe, Germany) ・Certec (Center for Rehabilitation Engineering Research), Lund University (Sweden) ・University of Dundee (Dundee, UK) ・University of Abertay Dundee (Dundee, UK) ・REHA Care International (Dusseldorf, Germany) (3) These survey results were presented in the 16^<th> Japanese Conference on the Advancement of Assistive and Rehabilitation Technology JCART2001 and the 17th JCART2002. One more survey result will be presented in the 18^<th> JCART2003. Also, three series of survey results in Europe were published in the Journal of the Robotics Society of Japan in 2002 and 2003 as in the explanation. (4) The 17 related research results were presented in the conferences and journals. And furthermore 7 more research results will be presented.
