NASHVILLE, Tenn. – National Seating and Mobility has been named the exclusive national provider of munevo’s DRIVE smart glass alternative drive control for power wheelchairs in the U.S. “NSM is proud to offer uniquely engineered systems and breakthrough technology solutions to support the independence of those living with a broad spectrum of mobility needs,” said Darren Lowman, NSM chief transformation officer. “The munevo DRIVE is no exception. A partnership with munevo allows us to further support our clients with a transformative technology that offers a greater level of independence and freedom that was previously not possible to our clients.” DRIVE, which is already available in Europe, offers users an adaptable and intuitive proportional head control, providing a progressive alternative to traditional switch-based head arrays, sip-n-puff systems and chin controls. Its power to self-calibrate controls offers a comfortable and easy-to-use mobility solution for individuals with a wide spectrum of conditions such as ALS, multiple sclerosis or a spinal cord injury. The slight tilting movements of the head are recognized by the smart glass and converted into control signals, allowing users with minimal head mobility to move their wheelchairs independently and safely. munevo is based in München, Germany, and New York.
