Imagine one wheelchair that not only takes someone around, but allows them to stand and look at the world from a new perspective. It is the main feature of Kim-e, an electronic wheelchair equipped with a unique lifting mechanism. In just a few seconds, users can move from a sitting to a standing position, experiencing a completely new mobility experience.
Designed with users' independence and dignity in mind, this chair allows them not only to move freely, but also to interact at a visual level equivalent to that of a standing person. This characteristic is particularly significant in social and work contexts where being on the same level as others can make a big difference in communication and interaction.
Cutting edge technology
Kim-e's lifting technology is a true milestone in the field of assistive robotics. With a mechanism reminiscent of scissors, the chair gently lifts the user, always maintaining maximum safety. The thigh straps ensure that the user remains secure and secure when transitioning from a sitting to standing position. Furthermore, the chair is controlled through upper body movements, leaving your hands free for other activities.
In addition to its innovative lifting mechanism, the Kim-e is also impressive with its mobility performance. With a maximum speed of 20 km/h and a range of 30 km per four-hour charge, this electric wheelchair is perfectly suited for both everyday city use and outdoor adventures. His ability to overcome obstacles and inclinations up to 20 degrees make it versatile and suitable for different environments.
Comfort and adaptability
There is no lack of attention to comfort in the design of Kim-e. The integrated shock absorber ensures a smooth ride, even on uneven terrain. Versatility is further strengthened by the possibility of mounting off-road tires, which broaden users' exploration horizons. With a weight of just 38 kg and a load capacity that varies between 40 and 90 kg, Kim-e is both robust and easy to handle.
Il launching this thing marks a turning point in the field of assisted mobility. Its user-centered approach and cutting-edge technology represent a big step towards making the world more accessible to everyone.
Integration and interaction
One of the biggest challenges for wheelchair users is feeling like an integral part of society. The Kim-e, with its unique ability to lift users to a height that allows face-to-face communication, addresses this challenge in an innovative way.
This feature could have a significant impact on users' quality of life by improving social interaction and integration into daily life. The freedom of movement and the ability to 'stand' without the assistance of other people provides a sense of autonomy and control over one's life that is crucial for many users.
Future perspectives
While waiting for further information (especially on prices and availability) it is clear that Kim-e has the potential to become a point of reference in the sector.
The Kim-e is not just a wheelchair, it is a step towards a more inclusive society. Its ability to literally rise above traditional limitations opens up new possibilities not only for wheelchair users, but for all of us, as a community, to reconsider and redefine what accessibility and inclusion means. With Kim-e, Chronus Robotics isn't just designing a wheelchair; is planning a future where everyone can 'stand up' together.
