Project Summary

To design and analyze an affordable and portable clip-on power attachment that can function over a variety of terrains for off-the-shelf wheelchair

Project Objectives

1. To provide a structural design, mechanism of attachment and propulsion system.
2. To perform a structural analysis of the attachment.
3. To prepare of manufacturing drawings.
4. To present a thesis report

Project Implementation Method

 The manual wheelchair user will have to merely attach our device using a clip-on mechanism. A battery-operated electric motor mounted on an attachment is used to propel the wheelchair.

Benefits of the Project

- Handicapped people need utilities for a more functional life. This attachment will make mobility more convenient for them.

- Around 1 million Pakistani people are handicapped.
