Our NuVu kid engineer, Stefano Pagani, was featured on Design Squad Global for his invention called the Uplift Wheelchair that helps kids with cerebral palsy in Monterrey, Mexico. The Uplift Wheelchair seeks to make it easier for a caretaker to lift, rotate, and position their child with cerebral palsy in different locations within the home, especially in the bathroom. Additionally, the device was tailored to the requirements of Monterrey, Mexico, which demand low cost and high flexibility. Hear the story and more details about his design and engineering process featured on this episode of Design Squad Global.
