The wheelchair works fine, in fact, it works better than I thought it would at the start of the project. But the simulator...well....it's skewing my data to make my project crappy! I mean, it's totally a design flaw though, I designed this to be in a real environment not on the simulator environment. I designed the control so it uses your intuition, sense of direction and ability to anticipate. This creates a fast response for the subject. But, in the simulator you are stripped of these skills and now you have to rely on a chain reaction. Because you cannot see the map while you control the simulator (because you control the simulator with your eye/eyebrow movement), you have to rely on a second person to tell you when and how to move. This creates a substantial delay that skews all data! Ok, I'll stop ranting now before I have a nervous breakdown...

Intuition, sense of direction and the ability to anticipate, that is what separate us from machines, if the human race had those abilities it would be great :P
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you just explain that in your paper though?!
ReplyDeleteyeah, that was complicated..."Stop, no forward. You went too far. A little left, then forward, no too much, stop!" haha frustrating...but yeah, you will just have to explain that :)
