New technology! Wheelchair that can be used for cycling

Recently, Japanese robot company Tmsuk released a new wheelchair robot Rodem. Unlike traditional wheelchairs, Rodem does not have a seat back, but instead has a backing plate in front of the seat. When the user is riding, the two legs need to be opened and the center of gravity is forward. The wheelchair weighs about 110 kilograms and has a top speed of 6 kilometers per hour. Charging time takes 8 hours and can last for 15 kilometers.

What are the advantages of this type of wheelchair?

Because of the design described above, the user can easily climb the wheelchair directly from the rear from the bed or the sofa, sit in a wheelchair in a person's back posture, and lean against the front panel. Through the mobile app, the user can not only control the travel of the wheelchair, but also adjust the height of the seat and the forward and backward tilt to adapt to different activities.

According to Tmsuk, the development of this wheelchair robot is intended to enable more wheelchair users to enjoy freedom of movement, especially to reduce the mobility barriers of the elderly and the disabled, and to expand the scope of activities to improve the quality of life.

This is another hope for the people with limited mobility! I hope that more high-tech products will emerge in the future, which will greatly facilitate the lives of people with limited mobility.
