HEIGHT ADJUSTABLE MOBILITY DEVICE FOR WALKING IMPAIRED

Abstract

ABSTRACT a height adjustable mobility system (100) for walking impaired, the system (100) comprising: a frame (102) comprising a backrest, armrest, footrest configured to provide support to a patient’s body; a plurality of sensors (104) configured to detect presence of obstacles in proximity to the frame, a processor (106) communicatively coupled with the plurality of sensors (104), wherein the processor (106) is configured to: receive data from the plurality of sensors (104), determine presence of the obstacle, and actuate a pair of motorized wheels (108) attached with the frame for dodging the obstacle; and a scanner (110) configured to determine physical characteristics of the patient, wherein the processor (106) is configured to actuates an actuator (112) attached with the frame for adjusting size and dimensions of the frame (102) to properly accommodate the patient’s body.

Specification

Description:FIELD OF THE DISCLOSURE
[0001] This invention generally relates to a field of mobility assistance technologies and, more specifically, to a height-adjustable mobility system designed to aid walking-impaired individuals by integrating sensor technologies and automated response mechanisms for obstacle avoidance and personalized adjustments.
BACKGROUND

[0002] The subject matter discussed in the background section should not be assumed to be prior art merely as a result of its mention in the background section. Similarly, a problem mentioned in the background section or associated with the subject matter of the background section should not be assumed to have been previously recognized in the prior art. The subject matter in the background section merely represents different approaches, which in and of themselves may also correspond to implementations of the claimed technology.
[0003] Traditional mobility aids, such as walkers and wheelchairs, often rely on manual adjustments and lack advanced features for ob , Claims:1. A height adjustable mobility system (100) for walking impaired, the system (100) comprising:
a frame (102) comprising a backrest, armrest, footrest configured to provide support to a patient's body;
a plurality of sensors (104) configured to detect presence of obstacles in proximity to the frame,
a processor (106) communicatively coupled with the plurality of sensors (104), wherein the processor (106) is configured to:
receive data from the plurality of sensors (104),
determine presence of the obstacle, and
actuate a pair of motorized wheels (108) attached with the frame for dodging the obstacle; and
a scanner (110) configured to determine physical characteristics of the patient, wherein the processor (106) is configured to actuates an actuator (112) attached with the frame for adjusting size and dimensions of the frame (102) to properly accommodate the patient's body.

2. The system (100) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the actuator includes but not limited to pneumatic actuators.
