At the best of times, some people with physical disabilities may find it challenging to navigate even built-up trajectories inside buildings and along sidewalks outside, but with this wheelchair concept by Facundo Elias, it looks as though users can have access to a broader and more approachable world, which even includes all-terrain travel.
The specifics of this project are difficult to decipher, but several of its physical components speak for themselves. Most significantly, a pair of heavily tread tires flank the lightweight and adjustable seat, allowing the sitter ease of maneuvering and the type of wheels that can compete with even the most menacing of obstacles. A third wheel at the back helps to stabilize this wheelchair concept by Facundo Elias, all the while avoiding any restriction to its turning radius.
