motors are not only
a key component of TrueTrack technology, , but the design
is also 75% efficient, resulting in 17% more battery
range than Invacare’s 4-pole motors. Battery range is
an important feature for active users and users requiring
powered seating systems.
TrueTrack Technology.
The patented TrueTrack technology features GB motors
and motor controller. This feature helps keep the power
wheelchair on a truer forward path – even on many
slopes, thresholds and uneven terrains. TrueTrack
minimizes the need for veer correction, diminishing
fatigue for joystick and switch drivers.
TrueTrack Technology is beneficial for the client for
the following reasons:
• As the power wheelchair holds a truer course, the
driver needs to make fewer course corrections.
This makes driving more efficient by reducing the
necessary amount of movement. Reducing the required
movement can increase overall speed (i.e. the client
may be able to move down a hallway faster, as less
compensatory movements are required), decrease
fatigue, and promote independence while driving,
because the chair is not pulled off course. This is
true for drivers using a proportional control as well
as a digital or non-proportional system.
• This feature is critical for clients who fatigue easily,
as less compensatory movements are required.
• This feature also is critical for clients who use a
non-proportional or digital access method (i.e. a
head array with proximity switches or pneumatic
sip-n-puff controls). Driving with switches can be
very tedious and inefficient. Making frequent course
corrections significantly increases the effort, time and
energy required. Fewer course corrections translates
to a more efficient driver.
