This paper presents the control architecture of a novel wheelchair simulator to support the training phase in a controlled and safe environment. It is composed by a virtual reality system and a parallel mechatronic platform, in order to provide proper vestibular and haptic feedbacks to the patient. The system allows to simulate both electronic and manual wheelchair, by the use of a couple of sensorized and motorized haptic wheels.
