Introduction+Page+and+Physical+Disabilities

This website displays some impairment of people in today’s world. It will show how people overcome these struggles with technology. Some examples of the impairments you will learn about are, hearing, sight, touch and muteness. These different pages then show the technologies needed to overcome these problems. The technologies include wands, joysticks, screen readers, Braille embossers and a lot more.

On this page you will also learn about some physical disabilities. People, who have orthopedic, neuromuscular, cardiovascular and pulmonary disorders, these people need help using a technological tool. They can use wheelchairs, crutches and canes. They can have these problems either when they were born or if they get into an accident.

If a person gets paralyzed from the waist down in a car crash they are going to need a wheelchair. The cost of a wheelchair in today’s world is, around 100 dollars. Now some people have the motorized wheelchair which can be more expensive, around 1,000 dollars. The motorized wheel chairs make it easier on the person but are also more expensive. I personally think that the 100 dollar wheelchair is better; I believe this because when a lot of people go into wheelchairs they get overweight and cannot move. So if you are using your arms to push yourself throughout the day then that will burn calories and help you stay fit. It is good that technology makes it easier on these people to have mostly normal lives.
