In the course Innovative and Sustainable Development 1, we contacted the user experience company Okatima. We were asked to develop a concept for a VR simulator based on the experience of using a wheelchair. This product was intended to be used at the Kreativum experience center for all visitors, small and large, to move in a different way in an otherwise joystick-dominated VR simulation, and at the same time experience the feeling of the influencing forces on a “real” wheelchair. Great emphasis was placed on the development of solutions regarding safety in use, as well as the inclusion of all possible end users.
