How do you go to the toilet with this thing? Or sit at a desk?

Exmovere Holdings intends to develop the production version of the Chariot to be able to retract into a seated position so that is as easy to slide in and out of it as it is from a normal wheelchair.

Will it come in other colors? The blue makes him look like a mermaid or something. Maybe just a matte black for the whole thing. You don't want it to draw attention, and black goes with anything.

[exmovereholdings]

Exmovere Holdings is currently doing market research to determine which colors and form factor would appeal to our target markets. Thank you for the feedback.

Cool!

Done properly, this chariot could dramatically change lives for the disabled and amputees. The entry and exit would need more attention if used by the disabled. If going for a sitting option as well, I would like to see a back rest of some sort - who wants to sit straight all day.

Now, how do we address the needs of very tall or very short people? Would it come in sizes:)

[exmovereholdings]

Our company, Exmovere Holdings, is researching the possibility of making the Chariot telescope and retract also into a seated position. The idea is to make it as flexible as possible.

What if you drop something?...Do you have to get out? That would be a time consuming process.

They clearly, CLEARLY just bought a Segway and put a plastic case around it.

I really would liked to see an actual disabled person try it out (if you need one, I'm free to contact! ;) ) It looks as if one would need to be at the very least a T-5 or T-6 injury to be able to utilize this product. Toileting would also be an issue. The idea of being eye level with others is very tantalizing! I'm excited to see this under development! :)

Couple of points:

1: The hand on hip/s/ Not a good look

2: Great way to increase the already sedentary nature of humans!

could be really useful for paraplegics

How do you navigate with this? And another thing is, is it heavy? ..like when you're putting this in your car.
