Benjamin Hubert´s design studio Layer unveiled the design of a 3D printed wheelchair.
The GO wheelchair will be produced with two different materials, semi-transparent resin and TPU. Also some parts will be built out of titanium.
Benjamin Hubert told dezeen:
“3D printing for manufacture is the most appropriate and powerful technology available to capture each individual’s unique body shape to enhance the form and format of a very necessary product and provide exceptional performance.
With the Go wheelchair, we saw an opportunity to really progress the manual mobility category for users with disabilities, and to use 3D-printing technology to solve significant and meaningful problems.”
