Mobility Innovation

Transforming movement into energy for a sustainable, independent future with self-driving wheelchairs.

We can all be super heroes!

Innovative Mobility Solutions

Empowering independence through self-driving wheelchairs that harness energy from movement and light.

Energy-Powered Mobility

Transforming movement into sustainable Kinetic Energy for a brighter, independent future.

Smart Self-Driving Wheelchair Technology

An innovation designed for true inclusivity and meaningful social impact. TK Autonomous Wheelchairs harness the power of cutting-edge sensors, precision actuators, advanced algorithms, and state-of-the-art machine learning to transform independent mobility.Each TK model features an intelligent onboard navigation system that seamlessly integrates proprietary software with Google Maps. This delivers real-time route planning, turn-by-turn guidance, and smart alternate routes, all at your fingertips. Users can easily input destinations, view estimated arrival and travel times, and make dynamic travel choices. All powered by robust, high-performance processors ensuring smooth and efficient operation.

Sustainable Energy Sharing

Creating community benefits by powering devices and enhancing mobility for all users. Donating surplus green energy

Elevating comfortable seating

Elevating your wheelchair seat for an elevating mental health speaking to your friends on eye-level and sipping your mocktails like everyone else at a mocktail bar

TK App/Onboard Navigation System

Our TK self-driving wheelchairs come equipped with an onboard navigation system that utilizes a combination of its own developed software and Google Maps to provide real-time routing and turn-by-turn directions. The system allows its users to input destinations, view estimated arrival times and driving times, and access alternate routes.

What truly sets us apart is that you are always connected to your self-driving wheelchair via smartphone app. The app doesn’t just provide directions; it talks to you as you travel, guiding you safely from A to B with spoken navigation, real-time obstacle alerts, and system updates. It would even suggest a stopover at your favourite ice-cream parlour for 3 scoops of hazelnut, pistachio and dark chocolate. It’s like having a caring best friend/mate/guide by your side, every step of the way.

But it’s more than just navigation. The app helps combat loneliness and improve mental health by connecting users with local human Buddies, fellow TK users, or walking partners for social outings.

Emergency TK App

TK can even alert family or emergency services with your exact coordinates to find you immediately, if you ever need urgent help. The onboard navigation and app are designed to empower, inform, and support; making every journey safer, more social, and more enjoyable.

Opportunities to Globally Advance Self-Driving, Sustainable Energy Wheelchairs

The Global Need for Sustainable Wheelchair Solutions

  • It is estimated that approximately 76–132 million people worldwide require a wheelchair for mobility, with the World Health Organization putting the estimate at about 80 million. Some sources cite even higher figures.

  • Most of these individuals live in developing countries, where less than 10% of people who need a wheelchair have access to one.

  • The demand for innovative, accessible, and environmentally friendly wheelchair technology, including solutions that harness or store energy from movement, is rapidly growing.

Innovations in Self-Driving and Energy Harvesting Wheelchairs with a Social App to Socialize with your TK Best Friend/Mate/Buddy or find human Buddies in your Neighbourhood

  • Recent advancements include self-driving wheelchairs, such as those piloted at major transport hubs like Schiphol Airport, which provide autonomous navigation for users with limited mobility. They are just machines taking you from A to B.

    TWalkMate Kinecharger is all this and more. It is your Best Friend/Mate/Buddy. It takes you from A to B, Talks to you, Socialise with you, find Friends for you, with a Power Elevating Chair and it donates your surplus Kinetic energy to TK charging poles for others to use free of charge!

    Always there for you! YOU NEVER TWalk Alone!

  • Emerging research is exploring dual-axis electromagnetic energy harvesting systems capable of capturing the kinetic energy generated as wheelchairs move, transforming it into usable power for on-board electronics or for recharging wheelchair batteries.

  • Solar-powered wheelchairs represent another sustainable solution, offering users extended independence and reducing reliance on grid electricity or fossil fuels. These are especially beneficial in regions where consistent power supply is a challenge.

    Additional innovations include the use of regenerative braking (capturing more kinetic energy while slowing down) and advanced lightweight materials for improved energy efficiency and reduced emissions in wheelchair production.

    High-Impact Application Regions

Efforts to introduce or expand self-driving, energy-harvesting wheelchairs should focus on global regions with:

  • Large populations of wheelchair users and/or significant unmet mobility needs (e.g., developing countries, aging populations in Asia, Africa, parts of Latin America).

  • Urban centers and transport hubs (airports, hospitals, universities) that can lead adoption of autonomous wheelchair technology and serve as demonstration sites for new sustainable models.

  • Regions with active assistive technology or disability rights initiatives, as these often partner with innovators and welcome new solutions.

Pathways to Make a Global Impact

  1. Partner with Technology Testbeds: Collaborate with airports and hospitals in major cities worldwide to introduce and refine self-driving wheelchairs—these institutions are showing interest in accessibility innovation.

  2. Pilot Energy-Harvesting Technology: Develop pilot programs in urban areas with potential for kinetic energy via TWalkMate KineCharger installing charging stations for free kinetic energy for smart phones/ipads These can highlight environmental and user benefits.

  3. Engage with NGOs and Foundations: Work with organizations like the Wheelchair Foundation and local governments to scale distribution and expand access, especially in under-served regions.

  4. Influence Supply Chains: Advocate for sustainable manufacturing—encouraging use of recycled materials, renewable energy in production, and modular designs for easy repair and upgrades to extend device life.
