CYBATHLON is an international competition organized by ETH Zurich, Switzerland, that provides an opportunity to promote the development of new assistive technologies useful in daily life, challenging development teams from around the world to work with people with disabilities to develop assistive technologies. In this study, we are participating in the Powered Wheelchair Race (WHL), an electric wheelchair category, as Team OECU RPwheel Project. This paper reports on the findings of the JAPAN Local Hub set up at Osaka Electro-Communication University in the Cybathlon Challenge 2024 held on February 2, 2024, including the preparations and precautions leading up to the event.
