現代人由於生活忙碌，常造成家中的老年人或病患無法得到完善的照顧。也因此使得電動輪椅、電動代步車、移動式移載機等，相繼地開發與推出，但這些產品通常都是屬單點或單項功能為主，以居家照護為例，醫療床、電動輪椅、電動馬桶..等皆已漸走入一般的家庭，但這些輔具間的相互運用與系統整合，尤其是各輔具間的人體搬移問題，鮮少有整體系統考量的產品問世。
本計畫即以「智慧型動力輔助移載系統」為開發主軸，將著重在輔具間移載模組之可行性評估及開發。此富有創意且配套完整的設計，可廣泛地運用於室內各種場合，亦可因建築結構的不同而設置，將老年人或病患載送到平面居家或醫療院所的任何地方，且不需要另由他人的幫助即能自主地完成移位的功能，不但可免去看護，節省支出，亦可兼顧病患之尊嚴。本計畫另一項主要工作為建置一「智慧型動力輔助移載系統之展示/體驗用平台」，並融入數位科技創意以提昇輔具之智慧化功能，祈使居家生活、醫療等人性關懷的照護更加簡易而完善。
The old and disabled people usually could not obtain a complete
care due to the busy life of their families. Therefore, power
wheelchairs, wheelchair scooters, movable patient lifts have been
continuously developed and launched into market. Although these
products have been gradually applied with single operation function,
they are lack of mutual interaction and system integration.
This project aims to design an intelligent power assisted
patient transfer system, with focus on its feasibility evaluation
and development. This creative and complete system could be widely
used in most indoor activities. Additionally, it can be installed
in any buildings with different structure. Furthermore the old
and disabled people are able to transfer themselves to various
locations without assistance. Cost reduction and dignity of the
patients have been considered in this system. A realization space
will be planned and constructed to experience and demonstrate
this system. Digital technology is integrated to facilitate the
human caring more simple and complete.
