DrehRad Kids vehicle for active playing
Year: 2018 Hochschule Darmstadt
DrehRad offers an engaging play experience for children, driven by the movement of the upper body and arms. Designed with accessibility in mind, it is ideal for children with limited mobility below the waist. Its ergonomic seat, inspired by medical seating solutions, provides safety and comfort and ensures carefree playtime fun.
The vehicle is set in motion by turning the handle. This is possible due to two rollers mounted one behind the other under the front axis. The inspiration for this function was a waveboard:
I tested the idea with a functional model out of wood,
an old scooter and some wheels.
The first test drive: It works!
