Low-interference wheelchair footrest

Design a prototype of a wheelchair footrest to allow user to interact with surroundings using their foot movement.

Project Overview

The goal is to create a footrest that is lightweight, easily detachable, and foldable, enhancing the wheelchair user's comfort, and allows interactions with surroundings through the footrest.
