Haedar said the innovation by a team of students and lecturers from the UM Surabaya Disability Service Unit (ULD) was very useful and effective for people with disabilities, especially for the disabled.

This Es-Cede smart chair is equipped with a steering wheel, automatic drive that can move back and forth, speed control buttons and uses an electric battery and there is a folding table for writing and a laptop.
