Systemy wartości osób z niepełnosprawnością odwzorowują ich funkcjonowanie, uwzględniające nie tylko uwarunkowania psychofizyczne, ale również determinanty społeczno-kulturowe. Badania struktury tych systemów mogą być prowadzone pod względem rodzaju, miejsca, treści poszczególnych wartości, a także ich funkcji. Najbardziej adekwatną metodą w tego typu badaniach jest metoda biograficzna, która pozwala uchwycić znaczną ilość różnorodnych doświadczeń osobistych, wchodzących w sieć relacji, zależności oraz oddziaływań wzajemnych między składnikami systemu, jak i systemem jako całością. Badania systemów wartości osób z niepełnosprawnością mogą poprawić funkcjonowanie samych niepełnosprawnych, jak i ich relacje z innymi jednostkami oraz instytucjami społecznymi.

The systems of values of people with disability reflect their entire functioning which takes into account not only psychophysical conditions but also socio-cultural determinants. Research into the structure of those systems can be carried out with regard to the kind, place and content of the values in question as well as their function. The most adequate method in this kind of research is biographical method, which allows one to capture a significant number of various personal experiences inscribed into a net of relationships, dependencies and mutual influences among the parts of the system as well as between the parts and the system as the whole. Reserarch into the systems of values of the people with disability could improve the functioning of the disabled themselves and their relations with other individuals and social institutions.

Increasing amount of disabled, severe ill and older people causes growth of demands for various kinds of wheelchairs. No doubts it is conducive to automation and robotization of wheelchairs and their integration into wider environments designed to support disabled people. Presented solutions serve to support and independency of the person. Main directions of development modern wheelchairs are as follows: - power wheelchairs with advanced and sophisticated driving system, including all wheel driven, caterpilar tracks, special rollers etc., - control systems, including both newest solutions for conventional joystick control, control with any part of users body and sophisticated voice control system, Brain Computer Interfaces, intelligent wheelchiars avoiding obstacles etc. - increase of comfort for user including automatic adjustment, easy-to-use set-up and special functions made wheelchair friendly during long use, - integration of wheelchaior and its user with wireless nets, mobile comms systems, GPS etc. - robotization of wheelchairs, which allows to perform with wheelchair another functions, eg. stair climbing, balance position etc. and makes possible use of wheelchair-side robots accompanied by bed-side robots. It makes easier to use wheelchairs by active users in developed countries. Poor countries need another apporach, decreasing prices and increasing accessibility to wheelchairs. Further wheelchairs development depends partly on their interoperability within smart home systems, augmented reality systems and ambient intelligence systems. All these systems contains solutions (both hardware and software) dedicated to disabled, severe ill and older people, significantly increasing their possibilities and independence. Joined together, thanks to effect of synergy, it can be more effective and much chiper compared with traditional (current) solutions. Moreover growth of people, who needs care probably will cause shortage of qualified medical staff, especially physicians, physiotherapists and nurses. In significant percent of causes integrated solutions can relieve them, even if partly only. Broad offer of possibilities causes neccesity to provide professional selection of the wheelchair. Even the best solution, but unsuiltable or improperly adjusted can cause dislike of user and be his/her another limitation.

The use of a computer may give disabled people independence, a feeling of increased productivity and an increased sense of self-respect. Thus there is a constant need to train disabled people in the use of computers and associated assistive technology. This task contitutes an enormous challenge because of both the increasing number of disabled people and the ageing population. This article aims at investigating the extent to which the available opportunities in this area are being exploited.

Wykorzystanie komputera może dać osobie niepełnosprawnej niezależność, poczucie zwiększonej produktywności oraz wzrost szacunku do samego siebie. Istnieje zatem stała potrzeba wdrażania osób niepełnosprawnych w użycie komputerów oraz rozwiązań dostosowujących komputery do potrzeb osób niepełnosprawnych. Stanowi to ogromne wyzwanie w związku z rosnącą liczbą osób niepełnosprawnych oraz starzeniem się społeczeństwa. Artykuł stanowi próbę oceny stopnia wykorzystania możliwości w omawianym zakresie.
