Abstract: For the growing number of people using personal mobility devices, development of devices that address their unique needs are fundamental to their quality of life. Traditionally those with mobility impairments have used wheelchairs to participate in activities. Two problems with traditional wheelchairs are the stress they put on the user’s upper limbs and their inability to actively engage the upper limbs. The goal of this Project is to create easy means of transportation and commutation for differently abled people. Presently, hand-driven vehicles for people with disability in their lower limbs are easily available in the market, but very few vehicles are developed for the people with disability in their lower limbs. The aim of this project is to develop a vehicle for people with disability in their lower limbs and provide vehicle users with improved levels of mobility, facilitating freedom in travel and contribution to the community. The most important part of the design is the incorporation of the steering mechanism which will be fully operated by hands without any discomfort and to make life more comfortable for the physically challenged persons. A battery powered engine was chosen for this design and consideration was also given to the weight.
