Abstract

In the smart wheelchair field the research problematics consists inapplying methods coming from mobile robotics to navigation assistance forpeople with motor disabilities. In this paper we detail the constraints andthe specificities of this application. From this study we deduce the need toobtain a cooperation between the human operator and the machine in order toachieve a mobility task. To illustrate this purpose, we describe a mobilerobot architecture which facilitates task and information sharing andtrading between man and machine.
