 note = {This article is of a measurement method of wheelchair seated posture. First, we have reported a brief outline of ISO 16840-1 world standard regarding posture while seated in a wheelchair; the standard specifies a global coordinate system. We also introduced measurement tools based on ISO 16840 and the current Japanese clinical works using the tools. Secondly, we have reported how to use "rysis", the ISO standard-based wheelchair seated posture measurement (WSPM) software, which was invented by one of the authors Takashi Handa innovated in 2008. Since 2009, we have been promoting clinical application of "rysis". As of June 2014, the number of distribution facilities of the "rysis" was over 300 in the world. Thirdly, we have reported how to conduct a survey using "rysis" and have stated the results of the research. We have presented our research booth during the Barrie Free Trade Show (BF), which has annually held with almost one hundred thousand visitors at Intec Osaka, Osaka, Japan. From BF visitors in the past six years, a total of 266 daily wheelchair users participated in the research. Our measurement results can directly visualize their wheelchair seated posture. We have been developing skills and knowledge for clinical application and improving the software usability, Finally, we concluded the benefit of "rysis" that include empowerment of people with disability and the educational impact on both consumers and students., Original Article},
