About
LUCI is a hardware and software system developed after over 25,000 hours of user testing in collaboration with clinicians and wheelchair users. An FDA-registered Class I device, LUCI attaches to existing power wheelchairs and adds intelligent safety sensing without replacing the chair or its controls.
What It Does
LUCI adds 360-degree environmental sensing—stereo vision cameras, ultrasonic sensors, and radar—automatically slowing the chair before obstacles, drop-offs, or tipping hazards. The MyLuci smartphone app lets users and caregivers monitor seat pressure data, set geofence boundaries, and review daily chair usage history over time.
Who It Helps
Adults and children who use power wheelchairs, particularly those with limited motor control such as people with cerebral palsy, ALS, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord injury. It is especially valuable for users who benefit from an additional safety layer and for caregivers monitoring wheelchair use remotely.
