Abstract
This project introduces a high-tech automated wheelchair in order to prevent its user from falls due to uneven roads and poor infrastructure, along with helping them expand the areas in which they can explore using LiDar scanners. These scanners automatically adjust the friction types on its wheels depending on the surface, allowing the user to smoothly glide over different terrain. Along with this, the product contains a health-monitoring system to ensure its users safety. For its battery, Evoterrain incorporates sustainale solar panels into its design, increasing travel range for longer travel and creating shelter from weather.
Our solution provides valuable market potential with its unique features, targeting all ages of wheelchair users who desire independent travel. We plan to donate a part of our profits produced by the products success to causes that benefit wheelchair users. Evoterrain plans to raise up the disabled, allowing for more freedom of movement and opportunity. We aim to scale through product sales, partnerships with healthcare institutions, and tech grants supporting innovation in assistive mobility.
