Sounds like a fun project, but if the goal is to help someone in a 
wheelchair, why don't you get a motorized chair and put a basket on it?
This is not meant as a flame.  I know that it is easy to get involved in
an exciting project and forget that the goal is to help someone, not 
develop interesting hardware.
