- Study Objective
Based on the hypothesis that the seating stability will not be changed by our new seating system, research will be carried out to measure the kinetic and kinematics of wheelchair propulsion. The purpose of this study is, therefore, to compare the performance of wheelchair occupants during straight, turn, uphill and downhill tasks in the new seating system, to that of a regular one.
