Abstract
In the smart wheelchair held the research problematics consists in app lying methods coming from mobile robotics to navigation assistance for people with motor disabilities. In this chapter we detail the constra ints and the specificities of this application. From this study we ded uce the need to obtain a cooperation between the human operator and th e machine in order to achieve a mobility task. To illustrate this purp ose, we describe a mobile robot architecture which facilitates task an d information sharing and trading between man and machine.
