In contemporary society, accessibility has transitioned from being a mere convenience to a fundamental right, essential for individuals to lead fulfilling and independent lives. The World Health Organization highlights that approximately 15% of the world's population lives with some form of disability, with mobility impairment being particularly prevalent. In India, this translates to over 3 crore individuals grappling with mobility challenges, a significant segment of the population. The inability to navigate stairs can significantly impede daily life activities and compromise independence, affecting various demographics such as the elderly, individuals recovering from injuries, and those with permanent disabilities. Recognizing this pressing need for accessible solutions, this project endeavors to address the gap with a practical and cost-effective innovation: a staircase lift for easy home access. Conventional lifts, while offering a solution, often come with a hefty price tag and require substantial installation space, rendering them impractical for many households, especially those with limited budgets or space constraints. Our project aims to bridge this gap by proposing a more economical alternative, the staircase lift. While the concept of a staircase lift isn't entirely new, existing solutions often fall short in terms of affordability and adaptability. We aim to build upon these existing foundations and innovate towards creating a solution that not only addresses accessibility needs but does so in a financially feasible manner.
