Patent Number:- IN460730

Multi-Legged Stair Navigating Device

  • Sector: Assistive Technology,
  • IPC: A47B, B62D, B66F, E05F, G03B,
 

Need

Current stair-climbing mechanisms for the mobility-impaired lack stability, dexterity, are complex, and not universally applicable to various stair types, limiting utility for paraplegics and quadriplegics.

Solution

The invention improves automated devices' efficiency and reliability through a system and method that efficiently handles outliers and noisy datasets for fault detection.

Innovation

Technological advancement is achieved through a multi-legged device with a unique inclined frame design, incorporating individual motors and dual-sensor systems on each leg for dynamic pressure detection and distance sensing. This configuration enables adaptive staircase navigation, significantly improving stability, dexterity, and operational efficiency for enhanced mobility aid.
