Biomedical Engineering Final Year Topic: Design and Evaluation of Wheelchair Joystick Dead-Zone Model

This Biomedical Engineering final year project investigates balancing unintended input rejection and controllability in a simulator through a non-clinical engineering study using synthetic, licensed de-identified or explicitly approved teaching evidence.

Why choose this project topic?

The project gives balancing unintended input rejection and controllability in a simulator a bounded engineering scope with observable errors and clear comparison criteria. Measuring unintended motion, tracking error and reachable commands allows a student to discuss design quality and uncertainty while keeping conclusions separate from untested clinical claims.

How do the selected non-clinical engineering methods affect unintended motion, tracking error and reachable commands when balancing unintended input rejection and controllability in a simulator?

Agree a synthetic or appropriately licensed dataset, inert teaching phantom or approved non-clinical task, then narrow the evaluation for balancing unintended input rejection and controllability in a simulator.

Proposed project objectives

  1. 01Define the non-clinical task, evidence permissions and assumptions for balancing unintended input rejection and controllability in a simulator.
  2. 02Use synthetic joystick traces, compare dead-zone mappings and evaluate path tracking in a non-physical virtual chair.
  3. 03Compare unintended motion, tracking error and reachable commands and document uncertainty and limits on interpretation.

A suggested research approach

Use synthetic joystick traces, compare dead-zone mappings and evaluate path tracking in a non-physical virtual chair. Confirm data licences and any ethics requirements before collection or participant tasks. Use no patient-connected prototype, record the reference conditions and compare unintended motion, tracking error and reachable commands transparently, including errors and cases where the method should abstain.

What you will need

  • Synthetic joystick traces
  • Virtual chair simulator
  • Mapping definitions

Keep your project scope clear

The model must not control a real mobility device or determine an individual's driving ability.
