The MicroGuide is a light-touch proportional power wheelchair drive control: the farther you push, the faster the chair will go. The device gives the user the ability to operate their wheelchair with 360° of control as well as the full range of the wheelchair's drive parameters (speed, acceleration, etc.). Deflection-based technology offers physical joystick throw for users who prefer the feedback from movement. Metal construction offers a significant durability advantage. The MicroGuide is ideal for clients who require the sensitivity of a light-touch drive control as well as the feedback of joystick displacement. Compatibility: Penny and Giles R-Net (Omni Display from wheelchair manufacturer is required), Quantum Q-Logic electronics (Enhanced Display from wheelchair manufacturer is required). Not compatible with Invacare electronics.
