Purpose of the project:

This development project is Self-Management Assistance through Technology (SMART) – Virtual Coaches for Wheelchair Users. We will develop a suite of interactive coaching tools based on smart mobile devices (e.g., smartphones and wearable devices) that support wheelchair users to learn about safe and effective use of their wheelchair, to navigate the wheelchair service delivery process, and to lead a healthy lifestyle.

This project is supported by the National Institute of Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR): Disability and Rehabilitation Research Project (DRRP).
