Amos Winter: 廉价的全地形轮椅

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.
