Abstract

In recent years, various types of personal mobility have been researched and developed. Among them, there is a seated-type personal mobility such as a wheelchair. The human body motion interface has developed for such type of the personal mobility. Although this interface uses body movements associated with voluntary movements, and the potential for intuitive operation has been confirmed, the lack of force feedback makes it difficult to correlate the body inclination with the wheelchair's speed. Therefore, this study proposes a belt type interface that adds force feedback to the human body motion interface of seated type personal mobility. This interface uses the tension of the seat belt to provide feedback to the user, thereby improving the feel of operation. In particular, this paper reports on an active seat belt system for this purpose.
