P’gasus brings up-right transportation to the disabled
by Ilya Kochanov on September 30, 2007

The conceptual P’gasus wheelchair provides a cool look into what the future of personal transportation for people with disabilities will be like. It it based on technology similar to that of the Segway as movement is controlled by shifting the riders weight. Best of all, the chair can be adjusted into an upright position which would help the rider accomplish every day tasks. There are still a few problems to work out such as effectively balancing the chair in the extended position.

A similar chair is already available but it doesn’t look nearly as cool.
