According to World Health Organization, in the world there are around a billion people with some sort of disabilities. Approximately 200 million people are undergoing considerable difficulties in functioning. For the large part of these people, qualitative, smart wheelchairs with protection systems feedback are too expensive. Most of electrified wheelchairs have only visual feedback to the user, which usually overload attention of the user. In order to reduce the load on user's vision, it is more convenient to use another type of feedback to prevent dangerous situations as tilting or collision with obstacles, and it is haptic feedback. To investigate the ability of using such type of feedback, it decided to create a system with tactile vibration feedback. This paper deals with the creation of vibrating actuator for haptic pseudo bionic feedback system. Main goal for that kind of actuator is wide range of vibration frequencies and possibility of regulation of vibration intensity independent on frequency. The main goal was the investigation of working ability of vibrating actuator as part of pseudo bionic feedback system for electrified wheelchairs. The device tested on a group of people in order to understand, different people reaction on the change of vibration intensity and frequency, which also proves the working ability of vibrating actuator for pseudo bionic feedback system. |
