This article discusses how to build an affordable, solar powered tricycle which can be used by physically challenged individuals in India to have improved mobility. The tricycle has been designed to provide the user with both comfort and freedom and uses a rear access ramp allowing users easy entry. By using a combination of alternative (green) energy and assistive technology for mobility, this tricycle provides a low-cost and environmentally friendly option for mobility. In addition to providing mobility options for disabled persons in developing countries, the project utilizes national startup funding and government support programs to promote social inclusion, environmental sustainability and economic independence in disadvantaged regions.
