Gay Cruising Areas In Gloucester County Nj

cycling?? Rex

Here we present two of the novelties of this year Rodem (www.rodem.es), distributor of the manufacturers handbike Stricker. For those who do not know, is the factory with more experience in the field of handbike that are coupled to the manual wheelchair and consequently more competitive both in quality and continuous product innovation. In previous reports I have explained the characteristics of their electric models, which we had the opportunity to thoroughly test and let us really happy. In this we will focus on his manual models, which are also very interesting.




Antes de explicar las novedades os resumo en que consisten las Stricker handbikes:  La experiencia y la constante innovación de los fabricantes R & E Stricker GMBH hacen que sus productos faciliten el movimiento de los usuarios de sillas de ruedas. Su producto estrella son las handbikes, que se adaptan a casi cualquier silla de ruedas del mercado y la convierten en un triciclo, permitiendo recorrer largas distancias con poco esfuerzo. Además mejoran la posición en la que los usuarios se propulsan y ello conlleva un beneficio terapéutico. Se pueden usar para hacer sport or as a means of transport, can easily disengage handbike and park anywhere to move the seat only when desired. This is possible thanks to the innovative and practical mounting system and automatic lift the front wheels of the chair. There are several models handbike: manual (also available for children), electrical and semieléctrica. With different adjustments to quadriplegics. With different number of gears 7, 9, 14, 18, 48, 72. With different wheel sizes 16, 20, 24 and 26 inches. All models are equipped with two different combinations brakes, brake wheel / brake disc disc brake / coaster brake, brake wheel / coaster brake. Depending on the user and recommend a combination model or another.


Stricker A remarkable point is the use of components and latest technology on the market make their handbike cycling are equipped with wheels, gears, brakes and other parts used by the most demanding cyclists, both adapted and non adapted cycling. One of the things we liked in Adaptado.es is the comfortable hook and hoist system of front wheels. And is that a fact speaks for itself: a person with very little strength is able to fit and remove any system independently, ie without the help of a third party. Among the features of this comfortable hook and hoist system are:
  • Stricker-handbike The adjustment to allow both rigid frame chairs as folding.
  • heavy do not need any adapter in the crosshairs of the chair (the which is still in the chair once the handbike disengaged, causing him to lose light and preventing its folding without tools).
  • wheelchair footrest attaches directly fixed on the front frame bars. If the chair has a removable footrest have light and simple adapters that remove the footrests and folding chair without having to remove the adapters.
  • His grip and lift system makes Stricker Auto handbike fully seated without any slack front. In addition, its structure Two tubular side arms with strong grip clamps prevents lateral oscillations produced in other brands where handbike hooked to an adapter placed in the center of the chair. Stricker system enables stable driving without unwanted movements or tremors.
As for news, Rodem we have presented two very interesting developments which we shall show.


The first innovation is the Compact City model. This is a dockable handbike small manual and a fold very well done. To achieve a small size, has chosen to use a wheel of 16 ". Among its features are the use of a three-speed box (not suitable for mountain) with optional seven-speed, timing belt, coaster brake and use aluminum for the manufacture of the top bar, which results in reducing weight.


The other news that we presented Rodem is the "engine chain." This engine can be mated to the City 9 models with disc brakes and Sport models (not suitable for handbike toothed belt). The engine is connected to the chain and therefore can use the full range of gears. With this engine gears and can climb very steep slopes, and flat with a long march is possible to go at a comfortable speed without much effort. The engine always works well with the proper torque, thereby protecting the engine and save battery. This is an engine with integrated electronic control gear freewheel. There is also a speed controller (Pedelec). The power supply using 2 batteries 12V/7Ah with the possibility of adding more batteries connected in the side tubes. Has an integrated charge indicator on the remote control. And of course the management handbike engine is almost as simple as the manual handbike without motor.

recommend that when you go to purchase a Support for the mobility of these features aseguréis you that the product is to seek and to comply with the characteristics that you demand. Rodem , its distributor in Spain, offers the opportunity to test products in those outlets where they have some, orthopedics fairs, demonstrations in partnerships and other entities throughout the year all over the peninsula, or exposure permanently located in the city of Valencia. We have already tested their products first hand and we recommend that all stakeholders is an opportunity to make something that very few manufacturers offer.

Experiment To Keep Coffee Hot

substitute for wheelchairs




At some point we MotoricosInfo brought to technological developments related to the development of exoskeletons as an alternative to mobility wheelchair.

In New Zealand have developed an exoskeleton enabling disabled people mobilized and is considered the substitute wheelchairs in not so distant future, Rex is the name of the exoskeleton , supports the weight of a person and has some control knobs to move up.

best part is that goes on sale in New Zealand this year, and make it internationally next year, the main disadvantage of this great progress in technology is that if they want to get one, will have to pay $ 150,000 , but possibly worthwhile investment and prices may come to vary in addition to new technologies that urge support for the disabled.

develop technology to control wheelchairs using the mind




The School Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Switzerland have developed a technology that will be controlled wheelchair using only the mind. It is an artificial intelligence system called "Shared control" or shared control (in my translation) that will, through a helmet with electrodes, transmitting the thoughts of the person passing through a computer which will make them an order for the chair.

Obviously the process is not as simple as just described, but is basically what we want to do it perfectly. The tests are quite advanced, it is possible to follow a space and go around obstacles. Michele Tavella, a lab assistant says: "When I turn left guess I'll move my left hand, says Tavella. He adds: is very natural and very fast, I can send an order in a second. "

As artificial intelligence machine is to understand the thoughts of the person, is a mutual learning between machine and person, in this case, with Tavella, so it took at least two hours your brain adapts to the system. It also has two cameras located on each side of the chair that allows the system to process the images and distinguish between furniture, people, doors and so on.
Advances continue and are expected soon humans and artificial intelligence are fully attuned. But my words are useless in comparison enjoy the video below.

Footime Mouse, a mouse for use with foot


This MotoricosInfo now we bring is a peripheral for some time but we believe that in some cases is very suitable for people with reduced lmovilidad so the "re-present" now.
Among all types of mice with strange shapes, that if it takes the first place. This is the Footime Mouse, a mouse to be used with foot . A simple idea, original and practical especially for those who have a type of problem in the hand or wrist.
The kit consists of two elements with very different functions: a kind of sandal , "slipper" or shoe for use on the right foot, with which you can move the cursor as it glides over a mat or padmouse. Next to the shoe features a panel with two rows of programmable buttons to be used by the left foot, with different features like right click, left click and double click. Also, as any mouse that is respected, has a unique scroll wheel or scroll but with the curiosity that is positioned horizontally.
A round of applause for devices like this that eliminate the barriers that may arise to be some kind of physical disability, it is not fair that these people are excluded from the technology. The panel buttons are remarkable for their large size, about 4 cm in diameter each, which makes their use is quite comfortable. It connects to your computer via USB two ports, one for the panel buttons and another to the slipper slide.
But not only is a gadget for people with disabilities, can be used by anyone who wants to have a "extra device" with which you can take shortcuts or hotkeys to any program that runs frequently. You can have up to 10 shortcuts through programmable panel. The Mouse Footime can have various applications in ergonomics, rehab, video games, assistive technology, laboratories, and various software that require intense repetitive tasks such as audio editing applications and video, 3D animation, graphic design, architecture, composition , CAD, etc.
You can buy the kit Footime Mouse for $ 199 dollars .

A suit of cosmonauts Russia finds a new use in muscle recovery of children with disabilities


A suit based on that used by Russian astronauts in the first space flight is proving useful in muscle recovery of children with disabilities , according to the television channel Fox 26 News through its website.

is a system based on employing the cosmonauts of the former Soviet Union to train when spent long periods in space, in order to avoid muscle loss that occurs when you find out the severity land, because you can not walk or stand.

Following this model, the chain of American Clinical Pediatrics Plus Therapy Services has designed a costume similar to what have been called "TheraSuit" and they are successfully used in physiotherapy to children suffering from cerebral palsy and brain damage.

This system allows children to be placed in a proper vertical position, which often prevents them from their disability. In this way, they can perform a series of exercises that help them improve muscle tone, posture and mobility.

With this exercise program, children with cerebral palsy have managed to remain seated without assistance, start walking and crawling, or regain lost mobility as a result of brain damage.

The method combines the use of the suit " TheraSuit " with a series of exercises, and so far only available in 70 U.S. clinics.

present a "smart knee" for doing "more natural"


People with an amputation of leg or arm to provide mid 2011 of an intelligent knee prosthesis controlled by a microprocessor and one that extends the functionality of the bionic hand "Michelangelo", which largely increase their mobility.

So Friday was seen in the Feria Spain Orto Pro Care 2010, where the company Otto Bock Ibérica orthoprosthetic intelligent knee and presented his new version of "Michelangelo."

"Genium" which is the name of the new knee, is a "smart prosthesis completely microprocessor-controlled leg, which manufacturers claim will allow" a more natural gait and healthy. "

The system that will fit all sizes and weights, is based on a series of sensors embedded inside the knee, which made "accurate measurements" and allow the tip to make more natural movements.

So said Pilar Moro, director of Otto Bock Ibérica, knee smart, you can stand naturally, walking uphill and down on irregular ground, a ramp, avoiding obstacles without problems, "or up and down stairs step by step with total control and security."

"MICHELANGELO"

For its part, "Prosthetic System" is a system that extends the functionality of the bionic hand "Michelangelo", filed two years ago at the same fair, bringing "the nervous system that controls it."

"Michelangelo" is based on imitation of movements and grip patterns of the natural hand function, which "allows a variety of flexible and functional movements," explained its creators.

Its manufacturing base of high-strength steel, they said, replaces the structure of human bones and joints. Also consists of silicone elastomers, which emulate the soft structures, and other high-tech fibers that replace the muscles and tendons.

Thumb and the other fingers have two different actuators that enable two axes of movement, allowing different speeds and grip strength.

wheelchair with automatic Pioto


People who need to move wheelchair and people nearby know of the problems that presented themselves. So far, the most were the motorized wheelchair and it was all an evolution not having to push wheels to move. Now we go a step further with this wheelchair autopilot designed a Saitama University researchers japonenses of Human-Robot Interaction Center. This chair has the option of following the companion automatically, so that in this way when accompanied by people who are in wheelchairs may forget to push the wheel or steering the chair with the remote.
