The mission of the Mobility RERC is to undertake a major shift in the way wheeled mobility is conceptualized and understood -- from the design of assistive devices that enable individuals to perform activities, to the design of a broad range of interventions that enable as many individuals as possible to actively engage and participate in the everyday community life.
Through research identify the needs of a wide variety of wheelchair users and develop appropriate products to meet their needs. The research and development work at the RERC will not be limited to wheelchairs but will consider the users and all of their interactions including seating, environmental barriers, and interactive training techniques.
