1. Being able to be eye to eye with other people when working with them will lift their social stature, no pun intended, as being low down is often cited by wheelchair users as a social disadvantage.

2. Use of both hands whilst traveling.

3. Speed and ease of transport.

Getting in an out will clearly require a little bit of inventiveness, but should be no more difficult to achieve than getting in or out of a regular chair of car.

I think this is great, and a genuine benefit for humanity!]]>Apr 16th 2009 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 12:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 10:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/I guess this is were aftermarket accesories come in. ]]>Apr 16th 2009 10:36AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 10:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 10:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 10:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Apr 16th 2009 11:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/
What happens though if two Chariot guys meet in a narrow corridor and block each others way?
And if you drop something to the floor? Or if you're attacked by a midget?]]>Apr 16th 2009 10:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/
I really like this idea though. I was in a wheelchair for most of my teenage years and just being at eye level with someone makes a huge amount of difference to the way people treat you. Getting in and out of this thing also seems like a huge concern, along with transport in vehicles.

Also, come on, surely you could make it look cooler than that, it looks like a stand up vacuum cleaner!]]>Apr 16th 2009 10:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/Can't see the video though for some reason, the page just shows a black rectangle, so I don't know how you are suppose to be strapped into it.

This is a scam. Such a classy one too - getting the hopes up of those with handicaps.

Other issue is theres no physical way for a paraplegic to get into the machine without help. At least with a wheel chair, they can muscle their way into it. If it had a way for the top section to fold down where somebody could lift themselves into it the same way they would a wheelchair, then it lifts them up into the standing position, I could see that working.

But I hope theres not a way to tip the machine while you are in it. That would definitely hurt as it looks like it is pretty heavy.]]>Apr 16th 2009 11:07AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/http://www.engadget.com/2009/04/16/exmoveres-chariot-returns-on-video-might-actually-be-real/

And what would it take to get a freakin' cup holder? Or does a CD drive tray pop out somewhere to put your cup on?

Speaking of CD drive, that thing should totally have a bitchin' sound system integrated into it.
