Abstract
Robotic wheelchair research and development is a growing sector. This article introduces a robotic wheelchair taxonomy, and a readiness model supported by a mini-review. The taxonomy is constructed by power wheelchair and, mobile robot standards, the ICF and, PHAATE models. The mini-review of 2797 articles spanning 7 databases produced 205 articles and 4 review articles that matched inclusion/exclusion criteria. The review and analysis illuminate how innovations in robotic wheelchair research progressed and have been slow to translate into the marketplace.
