The Chair Makes People with Debilitating or Parkinson’s Disease to Walk

Wednesday, March 3, 2010 |

It is truly magic to enable the people with Parkinson’s Disease or little physical strength to stand up and walk with ease without human support, that is made possible by the Intelligent Handrail developed by Tokyo Metropolitan University. This handrail controlled by computer technology helps the users stand up without difficulty and inconvenience, the equipment reacts simultaneously to the speed at which the user grips the handrail and the load from the handrail, and automatically moves forward to assist the user rather than demanding or increasing stress and force of the handrail drivers in order to match the speed.



The other best part of the handrail is that brings out the user's potential capacity to walk and stand up, Rather than having a machine move the user forcibly, this handrail amplifies the users potential ability. This intelligent, user-friendly system is really a boon to such patients.
