Abstract
Recent advances of motion control technologies make it possible to realize intelligent machine systems. Mobile system such as an electric wheelchair is one of them and it is expected as a support instrument in the future aging society. This paper focuses on a development of electric wheelchair that ride quality becomes high. To address this issue, a vibration control strategies of wheelchair is proposed by using the variation of a rider's COG and resonant ratio control. The validity of the proposed strategy is confirmed by numerical and experimental results.
