Power Assist Sensor System

The smart cart's power assist sensor system measures the force exerted by the user and calculates the necessary assistance power for the user. It provides push assistance when ascending and brake support when descending.

This system addresses the operational and responsiveness challenges of electric carts carrying heavy loads, facilitating easier and more intuitive control.

Enhanced driving on flat surfaces with a step-overcoming wheel system  

This is an advanced mobility solution that overcomes the limitations of traditional step-overcoming wheel systems, which often lack efficiency on flat surfaces. It combines stable and efficient driving performance on flat terrain with powerful step-climbing capabilities, delivering the best of both worlds.
