High-tech on display at smart healthcare zone
By QIU QUANLIN
At a smart healthcare exhibition booth inside the Canton Fair Complex in Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, a wheelchair demonstrates its ability to independently navigate the stairs, attracting the attention of many foreign visitors.
"It is not just a wheelchair — it is a robot with the form and function of a wheelchair," said Huang Zhou, deputy general manager of XSTO Co, which is based in Zhongshan, a manufacturing and trade hub in Guangdong.
Based on a 360-degree automatic balance control technology, the robotic wheelchair can travel on various terrains, such as stairs, slopes, and uneven surfaces like grass and sand, according to Huang.
