Chair Call

About this project

Chair Call is an app to call a wheelchair to one's’ bedside or back out of the way - clearing space for visitors. So the team designed an app that can “call” his electric wheelchair to his bedside using Bluetooth and send the chair to the side of the room and out of their way.

The challenge

After he transfers from his wheelchair to his bed, he doesn’t like having his wheelchair next to his bed because then his visitors can’t hang out with him.

Who it helps

Danny is hospital-bound and receives many visitors.
