Benchmarking

There are three main mobility aids for children with CP:

1. Modified Ride-On cars such as those seen in University of Maryland's Go Baby Go! Program
2. Powered Wheelchairs
3. Gait Trainers

The main customer goal is to provide a mobility solution for A based off of a Go Baby Go! Design. However, benchmarking is useful in that it can provide inspiration on how to further modify our car. We have developed a set of selection criteria based on our functional decomposition to determine what the “best available solution” is:

• CP-friendly controls
• Parent can control if needed
• Provides mobility
• Allows the child to have social interactions
• Is easy to use for child, parent/caregiver
• Is safe to use for child, parent/caregiver, and environment
