초록

본 논문은 힘 보조형 휠체어에 있어 사용자의 구동 의지력을 측정하고 이를 통해 사용자의 구동 의지에 따른 휠체어 구동 제어를 수행할 수 있는 시스템 개발에 관한 논문이다. 최근 고령자의 증가에 따른 다양한 편의 기구가 증가되고 있으며 이에 따라 휠체어에 대한 관심이 증가되고 있다. 특히 힘 보조형 휠체어의 경우 기존의 전동 휠체어가 갖고 있는 운동 부족 등의 문제점을 해결할 수 있도록 고안된 휠체어이다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 힘 보조형 휠체어에 있어 사용자의 구동 의지력을 측정할 수 있는 센서를 제안하였고 이를 통해 사용자의 구동 의지력에 따른 휠체어 제어를 수행하였으며 이를 실험을 통해 검증하였다.

This paper deals with development of the driving-will control system in power-assisted electric wheelchair. Nowadays, population of elderly people has been increased rapidly, and also an electric wheelchair has been considered as the device for the elderly. Especially, power-assisted electric wheelchair can overcome problems that a conventional electric wheelchair holds, such as lack of movement of wheelchair user. In this paper, we propose the sensors system to measure the driving-will force and perform the control action for a power-assisted electric wheelchair. And motion performance of the proposed system is verified through the experiment.
