Wheelchair Navigation Study
michaelwboyce
an upcoming research study. The study is analyzing how power
wheelchair users maneuver their wheelchairs in everyday situations.
The data that is collected will be used to further the development of
the AwareChair project, a power wheelchair which is controlled using
the brain signals of the chair user. Of particular interest are
individualized techniques that people with disabilities developed
through time while using their wheelchairs.
The study is open to any power wheelchair user, regardless of
disability. The study will be in the form of an interview which will
ask open-ended and close ended questions regarding wheelchair
mobility. The interview will take approximately 30 minutes and will
serve as research material for a Georgia Tech student's Masters
Project. There is no compensation with the study, and participants are
free to end the study anytime.

these surveys are almost endemic, it seems hardly a week goes by when up
pops other one, either asking all the wrong question, or wanting to
reinvent the same old stuff all over again.

I am interested to learn about these studies you speak of. I am a
wheelchair user myself (cerebral palsy), and haven't found them. Who
ran them? Also I would like to talk to you guys and see what you
believe the correct questions are that need to be asked. I am fully
aware that my research could be improved, and I am interested in your
input.

Most of them seem to pop up in the various online user forums, and are
mainly senior high school, and university pupils, looking for a project
as part of their course material. Lately it seems that hardly a week
goes by without someone leaving a message asking you to complete a
questionnaire.
