M3S is an open electric network standard for connecting rehabilitation equipment, especially electric modules in a wheelchair, it provides bidirectional communication at 250 kbaud via a CAN bus and extra safety lines for “Dead Man's Switch” and a TURN ON key. In an M3S system, the same input device may be used for controlling many different output devices in different operating modes. It provides flexible configuration tools for adapting the system for the individual user, M3S has been demonstrated and tested in more than ten different European development projects
