Perceptions and assessment of a novel robotic wheelchair transfer system
The PPTS demonstrated promise in offering a practical, low demanding, and safe solution for transfers. It has the potential to enhance user and caregiver safety by reducing the incidence of caregiver injuries associated with assisting in transfer tasks. In addition to its efficiency and ease of use, it is an advancement in assistive technology for wheelchair transfers.
