METHOD FOR PRODUCING OR CALIBRATING A CONTROL PROFILE FOR A WHEELCHAIR

摘要

A method and system for calibrating a control profile of a controller having at least one output variable used to control the operation of a mobility device. The calibration system controls the mobility device according to a prescribed routine under a range of changes of values of the output variable. One or more sensors provided, either temporarily or permanently, on the mobility device sense operational parameters of the mobility device and send sensed data to the calibration system. The calibration system determines mobility device stability associated with the changes of the at least one output variable based on the sensed data and produces a control profile that restricts a controller from outputting changes of values of the output variable associated with mobility device instability.

1. A system for calibrating a control profile of a controller, wherein the controller has at least one output variable used to control the operation of a mobility device, comprising:
a. a calibration system adapted to control the mobility device according to a prescribed routine, wherein the prescribed routine is configured to operate the mobility device under a range of values of the output variable; and b. one or more sensors adapted to be provided on the mobility device to sense one or more operational parameters of the mobility device and send sensed data to the calibration system;
wherein the calibration system determines mobility device stability associated with the changes of the at least one output variable based on the sensed data and produces a control profile that restricts a controller from outputting changes of values of the output variable associated with mobility device instability.
