QOLO Technology Changes Life for Wheelchair Users [Industrial Activities]

QOLO is a technology for personal mobility designed to support wheelchair-based locomotion. It can assist users' voluntary postural changing-sitting to standing and vice versa-by using only a passive mechanism and, therefore, facilitates convenient transferring from the wheelchair into a bed, toilet, tub, or regular chair (Figure 1). With the vision of mobility for everyone, we designed QOLO to dramatically enhance selfmotivated activities and social interaction for people with reduced mobility due to lower-body paralysis.
