WheelChair with flexible standing position to play Golf - CR COM VERTICALIZAÇÃO FLEXÍVEL PARA GOLF
About this project
The team created a maneuver plate for Pedro's seat with springs, that allows him to have the extra movement he needs for golfing. This is a platform that is attached to the frame seat, with axis and springs that allow a flexible adjustment of 2-4 cm to follow and support the hip and pelvis movement of the user/golfer when quick/swing the ball.
The challenge
Pedro plays golf using a golf wheelchair that enables him to stand and play. But he still lacks the body range and flexibility to comfortably hit the ball.
Who it helps
The need knower is Pedro, a wheelchair user.
