CARRIER Robotic Wheelchair Prototype

Robotic wheelchairs are certainly becoming the "in" thing lately. The latest concept is the CARRIER. Designed as a project at the University of Applied Arts in the Studio Industrial Design 2, Esslinger, the chair can traverse all terrains with its Galileo Wheel and can even go up and down stairways. The CARRIER was built with a "trap door" for use over a toilet and moves in all directions.
