Mobility impairments cover a wide spectrum of disabilities that impair the ability to move or use fine motor skills in any of the limbs. Arthritis, muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, spinal cord injury, cerebral palsy, and amputation are examples of common disabilities. According to CDC data, up to one in four (26%), adults in the United States have a disability of some kind. Additionally, 11.1 percent of adults in the United States struggle greatly to walk or climb stairs due to mobility impairment. As a result, the electric wheelchairs market will experience a large demand from this growing population.
The report highlights various other factors, such as the rising aging population, the increase in the cases of chronic diseases, and technological advancements in the wheelchair sector. Numerous engineers and researchers are developing the finest methods for designing and building Smart Wheelchairs. Blind spot sensors, obstacle detection systems, proximity sensors, proximity alarms, and alerts are currently available safety systems. For instance, in Jan 2022, Swiss startup Scewo introduced the Scewo BRO electric wheelchair for those with mobility difficulties. It features digital steering capabilities and will eventually develop for autonomous driving.
Geographical Outlook
North America, followed by Europe, dominated the global electric wheelchair market holding a share of 70%. In order to suit consumer demand, the regional market participants are consistently creating cutting-edge items. In addition, over 61 million persons in the United States, including 3.3 million wheelchair users, live with a handicap, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Estimates place the number of wheelchair users at 2 million, and this number is rising steadily.
The two most populous nations in the Asia-Pacific are China and India. China is regarded as an aging economy because there are over 241 million people in China who are over 60. In addition, China manufactures around 75% of the world’s electric wheelchairs because of its significant players and hubs for the production of aluminum.
Data from the National Crime Records Bureau show that 422659 accidents have a place in India in 2021, leaving 155000 persons dead and 371000 hurt. Therefore, it is probable that the growing number of injuries brought on by more traffic accidents would also fuel the expansion of the electric wheelchair market in India.
