Abstract
Owing to the increasing number of disabled individuals, technical aids are acting more aggressively in the era of modern medicine. The M3S (multiple master multiple slave) system developed for the physically challenged, utilizes intelligent transmission and integration mechanisms to arrange all hooked-up devices with proper control. To overcome certain limitations of the system (e.g. distance), an RF (radio frequency) wireless module would be in charge of the wireless communication between a remote bus and a local bus. It is demonstrated here as assistance for parking assistive vehicles (e.g. powered wheelchair) located in a remote region, which also includes monitoring and usage of accessorial data transmissions shown in our man-machine interface
