Phoenix is an innovative electric wheelchair concept that won the first prize of the competition « La Fabrique Aviva » in 2017.
Description of the video
The concept was invented by Vincent Paolantonacci helped by his engineer friend Jean-Marc Michel.
Under the direction of Mr. Eric Loupiac, head of the project de ICAM (school of engineering) from Toulouse, young engineers in 5th year are currently working on
the feasibility study and a first prototype of the half scale chassis of this truly innovative electric wheelchair. The very first tests of this
reduced-sized chassis allow to test the relevance of the concept and obstacle clearance capabilities such as steps, sidewalks and
stairs.
The first results are promising !
👍 and are presented in this video !
But the innovations of this wheelchair dont stop here... Our team is working right now on the development and the realisation of the prototype in scale 1:1 and we are looking
for financial, technical and industrial partners to help us to continue this great adventure !
