Disrupting the Wheelchair Industry

Tim Balz from Kalgon, a company who has set its sights on disrupting the Wheelchair industry was interviewed by access Tech Live to share how Kalgon is making progress. The company is focused on customisable seat cushions that can adapt to the user. This technology has the potential to change seating much more broadly, from the aerospace industry to call centres where people are sat for many hours at a time. Watch the video to find out more.

I am keen to see this technology develop and look forward to having a more comfortable and healthier seat.
