Outline of Final Research Achievements

We are working, in particular, on the development of a “disabled person support system” so that even persons with disability can safely and comfortably enjoy activities in urban centers. One of the functions of this system is the “wheelchair navigation system,” which defines its users as self-propelled wheelchair users. When a user moves around an urban center, this system provides them with information regarding suitable routes from their current location to their destination, such as the shortest route or the routes with lowest muscle burden, lowest vibration, etc. The usefulness of this system was verified by holding workshops in which we discussed the system with users.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

少子高齢化の時代を迎えた我が国の地方都市は,中心市街地の拡大を抑え,コンパクトな都市づくりを目指している。そのためには健常者だけでなく,お年寄り,ベビーカー,身障者といった交通弱者も含めたすべての主体がまちなか活動を楽しめるような魅力的なまちづくりが求められる。我々の実用化した車いすナビは,車いす使用者の安全安心なまちなか活動を支援するツールである。今後,ユーザーを交通弱者全般に広げることで,福祉まちづくりに貢献することが期待できる。
