Wheelchair Types: Publications and Resources
Summary: The "Wheelchairs: Types, Information, and Reviews" database at Disabled World (DW) offers a curated collection of publications focused on various wheelchair models and their functionalities. It includes articles on innovative propulsion systems, such as the Wheelchair Revolution prototype, and alternative power sources like the PneuChair compressed air-powered wheelchair. The database also features reviews of materials used in wheelchair construction, exemplified by the Carbon Black carbon fiber wheelchair, and provides guidance on selecting suitable wheelchairs for specific needs, including pediatric options. Users can search and sort the publications by title, type, publication date, and revision date to access relevant information.
