Driverless Wheelchairs Being Tested In Singapore
June 27, 2018
Could there really come a day when driverless wheelchairs won’t be a disabled journalist’s April Fool?
There’s been a lot of talk about driverless cars, but are driverless wheelchairs a more realistic short-term prospect?
Researchers from the National University of Singapore and MIT say technology can help give wheelchair users more mobility and therefore greater independence.
My disability means I can’t self-propel a manual wheelchair. I have no sense of direction, as a result of my disability, so I will never be able to use an electric wheelchair.
That’s why I, for one think such a day would be an amazing one.
