Project Background Snug Seat Product Guide 2013 Pediatric standers provide upright mobility for children with certain types of disabilities, allowing the user to move and interact in a way that is more natural than a standard wheelchair, while also allowing the user to bear weight on their legs; a critical part of current physical therapy practices. The ultimate end goal of this project is to produce a safe and repeatable motorized attachment for a pre- existing pediatric stander. 9/30/20143

Project Statement & Deliverables Problem Statement The primary objective of this project is to deliver a working prototype that will allow the client to control the movement of the stander. Additionally, the care provider will be able to safely control the movement of the stander, and override the user input with a remote control. Finally, the project will be packaged and made available for families with a disabled young person. Deliverables Functional prototype Functional wireless remote control for client safety and training DIY kit comprised of componentry, clear assembly instructions, and support information 9/30/20145

Feasibility Analysis 9/30/ How much would a parent be willing to spend on a DIY kit for a motorized stander? Rabbit Stander: $2,070 Motorized Wheelchair: $4,000 Is it feasible to produce a kit for $500? Original BOM cost : $1,600 Reduced BOM cost: $1,400
Feasibility Analysis 9/30/ How much power will the stander consume? 3x :30 minute uses/day Wh- stander.753 Wh- remote Is a kit assembly with 2-6 tools feasible? Previous team: 7 Tools Standardizing screws = 5-6 tools Is it possible to not add more than 20 lbs of weight with the kit? Previous team +40 lbs Neglecting battery, +28 lbs Is a kit assembly with 2-6 tools feasible? Arduino Vs. TI Microcontroller: Latency Is bluetooth communication fast enough?

Test Plan 9/30/ Verify using encoder calculations Team benchmarked the speed of a brisk walk to be 3MPH Measured using accelerometer Acceleration and jerk can be measured from a motorized scooter RIT engineering club & non-technical people. Verify meets engineering requirements (<8hrs) Have volunteers assemble kit to observe time and difficulty Compare deviation against previous stander Have stander drive over 20ft line of straight tape to measure deviation Verify using simulated 3-5mm/min rainfall IP Code water protection rating for light beverage spills Receive accurate battery life information using voltmeter Use stander on and off for several hours to test battery power Ensure combination produce desired results Test all control combinations for both client and remote together
