Ugo Project Aids Children With Cerebral Palsy To Move And Play Without Any Assistance
Posted by VAHIN NIAM at 3:18 PM
Children who are suffering from Cerebral Palsy require special support for moving around and correcting their body postures since the disease limits their control over muscles. Ugo concept is a tool that gives children freedom of those movements that they are unable to do their own. It contains a padded saddle seat that can be adjusted to the required height with the help of the integrated motor to facilitate the child walking on the street with a correct posture or enter and exit the seat by their own without any assistance. Operating of the concept is done via a remote control that enables children to select the direction they want to move. Moreover, a range of accessories come with the concept that aid to attach a footrest or tables with the seat for added convenience.
Designer : Roberto Reyes and Søren Mølgaard Laustsen
