‘Independant Wheelchair Assistant’ is designed by Oscar Fernandez who was inspired by his grandfather who has been in a wheelchair since the age of 20, This electric wheelchair has been designed in a way to allow the user to independently access local communities in a safe and easy way. A simple wheelchair is attached to the device from the rear with a small bracket at the bottom. The bracket lifts the wheels of the wheelchair & locks it, securing the chair and transferring the weight evenly across the four large wheels of both the IWA and the users’ wheelchair. The IWA can be operated with a simple push button.
