RETROFIT WHEELCHAIR

BRAKES

The Retrofit Wheelchair Brakes were developed after extensive user centred research was carried out with, adult and child wheelchair users.

 

Wheelchairs are only fitted with a parking brake. The system uses disc brake technology to provide variable braking with minimal force. I carried out my user-centered research by working with user groups, creating research strategies, conducting user interviews, usability evaluations, and focus groups in order to effectively structure my design towards my intended demographic.
