Creating Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology Experiences (cRE/ATe) - Student Projects
The cRE/ATe Project is an experientially-based design education program which exposes undergraduate engineering students to Rehabilitation Engineering and Assistive Technology (RE/AT). See Completed Project.
If you would like accessible versions of these documents, please email Susan Perlman.
Inventor-Driven Product Development
The purpose of this development project is to support inventor and small company development of promising mobility-related technologies. Need for such support has been demonstrated within the current mobilityRERC and is consistent with conclusions from the Department of Commerce report. The project is designed to formalize engagement of inventors/small companies. See Completed Project.

Wheelchair Data Logging Hardware
The PIC Logger v2 is a small, low-power logger designed for measuring wheelchair movement by means of wheel acceleration and angular speed.
Its features include:
- Up to 15 days of continuous logging when powered by two AA batteries; longer if logger goes into sleep mode
- Three-axis accelerometer measurement
- Uniaxial angular rate measurement (gyroscope – optional)
- microSD storage up to 2GB
- Occupancy switch input
- Real-Time Clock
- Upgradeable firmware Instructions for assembling and using a PIC Logger v2 to monitor wheelchair use are attached in the zipped package below.
For questions about the PIC Logger v2, current applications, and potential collaboration opportunities, please contact: Sharon Sonenblum, PhD., Senior Research Scientist, Georgia Institute of Technology, 404-385-0633, or email Sharon Sonenblum here.
