We found this amazing wheelchair on social media and just had to share it. It was developed by a team of 10 young medical students at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology (ETH) in Zürich, they are building it to compete in ETH’s CYBATHLON Championship for Pilots with Disabilities.
It an amazing achievement to create a wheelchair that can climb stairs, it will have huge benefits to many around the world to so many people who need a wheelchair to get around each day. We especially liked the rise feature at the end of the video.
