Keipu-Sb is the sensor-equipped version of AIZUK's Keipu transfer-and-mobility robot, which users board from behind directly from a bed - avoiding lifting, one-carer transfers in awkward postures and fall risk. The seat and handrails rise and lower at the push of a button so the user can match the height of a bed or toilet and reach high shelves, and the robot turns freely through 360 degrees on the spot around beds, in toilets, kitchens and lifts. It is driven with a one-hand joystick or remotely from an Android smartphone app, sensors stop it in front of obstacles, five wheels improve stability and reduce tipping risk, and the battery is removable for charging from a household socket. It measures 75 x 60.5 x 116.5 cm, weighs 55 kg, has a 42.5-72.5 cm seat height, carries users up to 75 kg at 1.5 km/h forward (0.7 km/h reverse), climbs 6-degree slopes, charges in 3.5 hours and runs about 2 hours 40 minutes (3.6 km) per charge.
