More specifically, it is part of workpackage 1 of this axis, which involves specifying, designing, developing and testing an instrumented wheelchair. This wheelchair can be used in uncontrolled environments by people with severe motor disabilities.<\/p>\n<p>One of the challenges of our research will be to assess the user&#8217;s motor skills in real time and, if these no longer enable him to control the wheelchair effectively, to propose an alternative interaction and control technique. The analysis of the user&#8217;s abilities as well as the establishment of a channel for piloting the wheelchair will be carried out by a brain-computer interface.<\/p>\n<p>To validate the approach of on-line analysis of the user&#8217;s motor skills and, if necessary, offer him an alternative channel for controlling the wheelchair, it will be necessary to start by developing a simulator. A first version of this simulator will use a virtual reality headset to visualize the user&#8217;s environment. To this simulator, we will integrate an electroencephalography system and develop an interface authorizing the use of this additional sensor.<\/p>\n<p>The simulator will enable us to carry out an experimental study involving a large number of disabled people. The precise objectives of this study and the methodology chosen to carry it out will be validated by a research ethics committee.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, <a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/cristal-job-offer-2024-ritmea.pdf\">download the detailed job description<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Development and deployment of a BCI+VR platform One of the BCI team&#8217;s research projects is part of Axis 5 of the CPER RITMEA, entitled &#8220;Silver economy &#8211; smart cities&#8221;.
