In a world that is primed towards the maximization of potentials of the majority populace, we often make it harder for individuals with differential physical abilities to access and make use of their talents to contribute back to the society. Policies by law makers are intended to benefit as many people as possible and hence make it harder for certain minority groups to be able to engage with rest of the world in a constructive manner. For example, we build stairs so that we can comfortably access locations at higher levels, people with physical disabilities, or differently abled people face enormous difficulty in being able to cross this barrier we have unintentionally created for them. However, it is also not possible to get rid of stairs completely and construct ramps everywhere as it could make life difficult for the general population. Hence, there is a great requirement to equip and innovate wheelchair concepts in order to ensure our differently abled friends do not have to face more hardship in their life than they already do. This is a problem we attempt to resolve.
