AbstractThe person who uses a wheelchair has limitations in the reachable and manipulative areas—these physical limitations outturn lack of visual cognition ability. Wang (2011) denoted impaired vision, attention deficits in the person who uses a wheelchair with mild cognitive impairments or dementia, and cognitive problems in adults with cerebral palsy or post-polio syndrome. Safety problems (i.e., lack of obstacle attention) on powered wheelchair manipulations are common in these people. People with trunk disorders often have very similar restrictions. Limited range of motion and movement was applied due to wearing orthotics during their developmental years. In addition to movement restrictions, they also have narrowed spatial perception. This research aims to measure the behavioral and cognitive restrictions of a challenged person who uses a wheelchair, then build a training system for spatial cognition and upper limb movement.Keywords: rehabilitation, training, game, physical disability, challenged person, range of movement, reaction time
