DESCRIPTION:Powered wheelchairs play a vital role in bringing 
 independence to the mobility-impaired. Our collabo
 rative control architecture\, aims to assist users
  in driving safely\, without undermining their own
  capabilities. We use measures such as joystick mo
 vement\, eye-gaze and secondary task performance\,
  alongside more traditional metrics such as speed 
 and accuracy to analyse both the system performanc
 e and the user interaction. The experiments show t
 hat the collaborative controller allows users to p
 erform manoeuvres more safely\, without the need f
 or high levels of dexterity or attention.
