About

Josh Kanode is a researcher dedicated to enhancing mobility and safety for power wheelchair users, with a primary focus on dynamic suspension systems and their role in preventing tip-overs on uneven terrain. His most cited work, "Evaluation of Power Wheelchair Dynamic Suspensions for Tip Prevention in Non-ADA Compliant Surfaces" (2023), addresses a critical gap in assistive technology by examining how advanced suspension designs can mitigate instability on surfaces that fall outside standard accessibility compliance. This study, which has garnered early attention with 2 citations, offers practical insights for improving wheelchair design and user autonomy in real-world environments. Kanode’s contributions lie at the intersection of biomechanics, engineering, and disability studies, aiming to reduce injury risks and enhance quality of life for individuals with mobility impairments. His research underscores the importance of adapting technology to diverse, often challenging, physical settings, making it a valuable resource for engineers, clinicians, and advocates. As a rising voice in assistive mobility, Kanode’s work continues to inform safer, more inclusive design standards.
