Abstract
The vehicle's equipment in specialized adaptations for drivers with disabilities requires knowledge of many issues, both anatomical, technical, procedural and psychological. In Poland, there are not many experts who have experience in comprehensive customer service with specific needs while driving. The article presents assumptions used to develop an algorithm for the selection of adaptive devices. The algorithm has the form of an expert database and contains: a description of possible dysfunctions, rules for the selection of adaptive devices and offers of European companies regarding specific adaptive solutions. The algorithm developed the knowledge and practice in the field of functional tests carried out in the Automotive Service Centre for the Disabled at the Institute of Motor Transport and serving people with difficult motor dysfunctions. The continuous development of adaptive instrumentation makes it convenient conditions for realizing the important need of mobility of people with disabilities. However, the process by which a disabled person has to pass to get a converted car is often complicated and time-consuming. Adaptation of a car is a very difficult task that requires specialist knowledge and experience. Presentation of existing procedures: from a simple Adaptation Selection Module to a more complicated algorithm, it should pay attention to the need to implement such solutions, among others for the needs of driving instructors or certifying doctors.
