MarioWay Srl Details
People with disabilities still have few opportunities to release their full potential. They can't move, use their hands, stand up because the wheelchair, something they use every day, squanders their freedom, life quality and relationships with others. Standard wheelchairs are of a time when people with disabilities were thought to be unable to work let alone win medals at Olympic Games. While times have changed -people with disabilities do win gold medals -; the wheelchair has not. While horse carriages have been replaced by sports cars or motorbikes in less than 100 years, the wheelchair has stayed the same: limited. While some of us have the choice to drive a Jeep, a Corvette or a Harley, others are left with a chair they need to push with their hands. This doesn't sound right, does it? This is why a prototype named "MarioWay" was born: to start a true revolution, create an electricity-propelled, hands-free mobility device so extraordinary that everyone will desire it. MarioWay creates autonomy: MarioWay moves through balancing the upper torso leaving people's hands and arms free to do whatever they like without any assistance: play basketball, shoot a movie, talking over the phone while on the street etc. Its size allows people to pass through the average doorway on their own making it possible for them to go to places previously inaccessible to them. MarioWay transforms relationships The user is at a standing height, making eye contact or shaking hands simple again. Breaking away from the seating position of traditional wheelchairs, MarioWay improves communication and interpersonal relationships. Its mechanical suspensions protect the users from the discomfort of bumps and holes during a ride. MarioWay provides real physical benefits Its purpose-built seat and knee rest allow the user to comfortably rest while being out and about in town and at home. MarioWay can also be used to exercise the body.
