For an updated project description, click on the following link for the Project Readiness Package. Problem Statement A modified ride-on car is a mobility device that allows children with mobility related disabilities to participate in social activities with their peers. This device allows the child to move independently and learn the motor skills they’ll need as they mature. As of 2007, University of Delaware’s Go Baby Go! Program creates customizable ride-on cars for children with limited mobility to open up their cognitive, social, and motor development. The goals for this project are to analyze current designs from Go Baby Go! to modify the ride-on car to be used by a child with disabilities between the ages of 1 and 3 years old and to be controlled by the caregiver if needed. Some areas to be improved upon on these current designs are client specific controls, stability, physical support, and remote assistance. It is important to be able to easily place, secure, and remove the child from the vehicle. The expected result of the project is a functional prototype vehicle that can be used by the client. The resulting design must meet ASTM and ISO safety standard for ride on toys and powered mobility devices. Our Sponsor |
