Solium is chair in latin, and latin makes us smarter.
Current Project
Teachers of the severely handicapped will find great benefit in the ability to control the wheelchair of a child who is unable to control it themselves. The problem to be solved includes appropriate safety measures, spatial sensing and determination, perhaps sensors in the walls to lay out safe routes, hardware control at the chair and input processing from the remote steering unit.
The chair will include a camera, and the remote controller will include a video image. The chair should also eliminate the need when possible to allow for a "follow the leader" mode, so that the user will be more independent when moving around
Some possible applications of such a system could include the tracking of location of multiple users. Automated transportation from one room to another along a predetermined path. The camera can be used to film class lessons to be reviewed at home with parents.
“Individuals with mobility difficulties should not be limited by their handicap. It is our goal here at Solium to give families the ability to safely aid those when they require it, without taking away their independence.”
