Video of the test wheelchair on the treadmill.</h2><p>The video contains the test condition, where the wheelchair with a slanted castor wheel was pulled using a cable attached to the push bar while rolling on a treadmill.</p><p><br></p><h2>S5 Video. Video of the wheelchair during outdoor use with an occupant.</h2><p>The video demonstrates how a modified wheelchair could be used outdoors on an uneven path, allowing the occupant and caregiver to walk side by side.</p>"
