| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research, we have constructed a simple measurement system using multiple inertial measurement sensors. Using the developed system, we performed motion measurement during motorized wheelchair operation using upper limbs for healthy subjects and those with severely physically handicapped persons and verified its performance. In this study, C3 high-level spinal cord injured person was selected as a representative example of severely physically handicapped person. Healthy subjects simulated C3 high cervical spinal cord injuries and restricted the possible range of upper limbs. According to the result, we verified that the performance of the development equipment is sufficient, and quantitatively showed that it is possible to operate the electric wheelchair using the upper limbs even in the C3 high-level spinal cord injured person, and the purpose of this study was achieved.
