This is a prototype for a fully autonomous vehicle that is handicap accessible. @LifeAtPurdue won a national competition by designing it. Watch @WISH_TV at 5 to see what makes this unique and when you could see it on the roads.

[Brandon J Pitts, PhD @DrBrandonJPitts]

Thanks @WISH_TV for highlighting this critical work! Prof. Brad Duerstock and I are excited to contribute solutions to enable a more accessible autonomous transportation future for many who currently face significant travel barriers.

[NHanCE Research Lab @NHanCELab]

Thank you @LifeAtPurdue for spotlighting this critical work! Prof. Brad Duerstock and I are thrilled to be part of the national conversation on making future autonomous vehicles accessible to people with disabilities.

[Purdue Engineering @PurdueEngineers]

Brad Duerstock, a professor of practice in @PurdueIndEng and @PurdueBME, and IE's @DrBrandonJPitts co-led a team to develop a design concept for helping industry make autonomous vehicles accessible to people with disabilities. https://t.co/D6x8ogEeXt
