The device which is the subject of this investigation is a robotic assistance module for the driving of a semi-autonomous electric wheelchair (FRE). It's intended to accessorize the FRE to improve the safety conditions during the driving of a FRE, making it possible to decrease the rate of accident in wheelchair on the one hand, increase the confidence of driving on the other hand, and facilitate the access to the FRE of people not being able to aspire to it without the use of a device of safety of this type.

| Evaluate benefits of using a FRE equipped with the assistance module on the confidence in driving electric wheelchair for elderly people in EHPAD | Evaluation by using the under score of confidence of Wheelchair Skill Test questionnaire (WST-Q-T 5.1) during the period of use of the module and at the end. The score goes from 0 to 56 (56 is the higher level of confidence). | Day 42 |

| Driving habilities | Benefits of the sensors on ability and performance of tasks performed with the electric wheelchair by Wheelchair Skill Test questionnaire (WST-Q-T 5.1). The score will go from 0 to 56 for each scale (performance and frequency), a high score will represent a good driving performance | Day 42 and Day 63 |

| Use of an electric wheelchair without sensors | Other | Use of an electric wheelchair without sensors for 3 weeks before using anti-collision sensors then during 3 weeks after using the anti-collision sensors. |
|
| Distance traveled measured by sensors on the FRE |
The distance will be measured in meters with a lap counter type. |
| Day 21, Day 42 and Day 63 |
| Mesure of mental load related to wheelchair mobility | Mental load will be measured by the NASA-Task Load Index. It is in the form of six scales where the participant must assign a score between zero and one hundred to each of them, score indicating a growing level of intensity. Three dimensions relate to the demands imposed on the subject (mental, physical and temporal demands) and three to the interaction of a subject with the task (effort, frustration and performance). | Day 21, Day 42 and Day 63 |
| Ease of Use Questionnaire | Satisfaction of using FRE by users will be mesured by the Ease of Use Questionnaire. He is composed of 27 questions, each question is valued between 0 to 7. a high score will represent a high satisfaction. | Day 42 |
| Acceptability of anti-collision sensors by users | A acceptability questionnaire based on the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) will be completed at day 42, with semi-directive interview | Day 42 |
