Analysis of the Design Results of Folding and Non-Folding Electric Wheelchairs

A wheelchair is equipment that functions for patients who difficulty walking due to illness, disability or injury. Several researchers have used the technology initially developed for mobile robots to create intelligent wheelchairs, which reduces the physical, visual, and skill demands required for operate a wheelchair. Smart wheelchairs are designed to provide convenience for users. Because more and more electric wheelchair designs depend on functionality and comfort for a user. So it is necessary to analyze electric wheelchairs so that we know whether the wheelchair is safe to use or not, besides that we can find out about the strength of the design of the electric wheelchair.
