Description: Kako napraviti invalidska kolica spremna da jure kroz blato i pesak i to za manje od 200 dolara? Ejmos Vinter, Inženjer sa univerziteta MIT, vodi nas kroz mehaniku terenskih invalidskih kolica koja su jeftina i laka za napraviti - za pravu pristupačnost - i priča nam o nekim lekcijama koje je usput naučio.

Ejmos Vinter (Amos Winter): Jeftina terenska invalidska kolica

Millions in the developing world lack access to wheelchairs that work on rugged terrain, leaving many isolated from jobs and education. Drawing inspiration from mountain bike mechanics and simple levers, a new all-terrain wheelchair was built for less than $200 and can be repaired with local bicycle parts. In field tests, users traveled 80 percent faster and navigated rough roads that once kept them homebound. A collaborative, user-driven design process turned a basic idea into a tool that restores independence and opportunity.
