Assistive Jogger





PROJECT SUMMARY


    The purpose of this project is to develop a device that will allow people with disabilities or injuries to run or jog outside. The main priorities for this year are to address the steering and collapsibility of the jogger. We are designing and fabricating an active steering system that allows the operator to have more control than the 2010 model. We will also build the jogger in such a way that it can collapse for easier transportation. Another issue we plan to address is the bonding at the joints. The 2010 model is experiencing a problem with the composite adhering to the steel that we plan to fix.
