Abstract

Cybathlon is an international competition organized by ETH Zurich and the first cybathlon was held on 8th October, 2016 in Switzerland. The aim of this competition is to provide a platform for the development of novel assistive technologies that are useful for daily life. Pilots who are disabled and use technologies to overcome their disability compete against each other. The pilot of our team won 4th place in the powered wheelchair discipline by using the vehicle that we have developed. In this paper, the performance of the vehicle is evaluated and compared with those of others (gold medal team's vehicle and silver medal team's vehicle). In addition, lessons learned for development of a device for cybathlon are discussed.
