Rehabilitation Engineering, vol.
He has worked with
Rehabilitation Engineering Movement Advisory Panels (REMAP) since 2002.
They cover assistive technology,
rehabilitation engineering, Internet accessibility, computer access, and experiences and applications.
The areas introduced are biomechanics, bioelectronics, medical informatics for biomedical engineering, biomaterials and tissue engineering, medical imaging, and
rehabilitation engineering.
Additional funding for this paper was provided by the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR),
Rehabilitation Engineering Research Center (RERC) on Wheelchair Transportation Safety.
The author of more than 400 journal articles, reports and conference publications, and eight encyclopedia articles and book chapters, Repperger was associate editor of the IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, Control Engineering Practice, the Journal of Intelligent and Fuzzy Systems, the IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks and
Rehabilitation Engineering, Control and Intelligent Systems and the Conference Editorial Board of the IEEE Control Systems Society, and regional editor of the Journal of Knowledge-Based Intelligent Engineering Systems.
However, I have specialised in
rehabilitation engineering related disciplines since July 1993.
Functional areas addressed through
rehabilitation engineering may include mobility, communications, hearing, vision, and cognition, and activities associated with employment, independent living, education, and integration into the community.
