Technology is continually advancing, sometimes this can be hard to appreciate in mobility. However a new innovative process has been created to help home-owners visualise a new stair lift in their home. The process uses “Augmented Reality” to visualise a stairlift in the home. It can be easy to forget that for some having a stairlift installed can be a big change as many have misconceptions about the impacts and never see the benefits from the increased mobility a stairlift brings.

With these common misconceptions in mind some of the largest stair lift manufacturers have produced tablet apps to help those considering a stairlift visualise the changes in their own home, the app projects an image of the stairlift onto the stairs based on the position of a paper marker. The paper marker is placed and the tablet’s camera scans the surroundings to overlay the image. This provides an accurate 3D representation to help customers see a stairlift in their own home and correct any misconceptions. This is a real issue no 2D picture, brochure or website could address.
