Experimental Treatment
Group I: SurePace Powered Walker UserExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Before any formal experiments are conducted, participants will be given an opportunity to "train" with the new powered walker for a pre-defined period of time to eliminate the confounding effects of being unfamiliar with using the device. (See the description of UVA's facilities and Protection of Human Subjects document for additional discussion of safety measures/protocols and Institutional Review Board procedures.) Experiments will consist of one-hour sessions (with adequate rest periods between trials and time for evaluations) in which participants will be asked to walk at a self-selected (comfortable) walking speed through a pre-defined 8 m x 4 m oval course.
