BOSS HD Equalizer Bariatric Tilt
System for Power Chairs
Offering a full range of tilt while also maintaining an environmentally practical low seat-to-floor height isn’t easy — but PaceSaver’s BOSS HD Equalizer system does just that. It provides 0° to 50° of weight-shifting tilt while managing to keep
the seat-to-floor height at 17.5"
to enable power chair users to
optimally access various daily
environments. The BOSS HD
also offers 3" of center-of-gravity
balance adjustment. The seat
adjusts to 30" wide and 26" deep,
and the sculptured back adjusts
in angle, depth, height and back
gap. Available options include el-
evating legrests or heavy-duty elevating legrests; swing-away and center column extra-wide/long footrest; thigh/hip/elbow supports; swing-away joystick mount; tie-down anchor points; and oxygen tank, among others.

Eliminator NRG Racing Wheelchair
The new Eliminator NRG Racing Wheelchair is the fastest, lightest, stiffest and most responsive ride in Top End’s line, and it’s designed for elite racers aiming for the top
of the podium.
The chair’s carbon
fiber main frame is
designed to provide
increased tensile and
yield strength to produce
a smooth ride with
controlled handling. The
200-gram full carbon fork
boasts an aerodynamic
design that flows into
the headtube for a clean,
sleek appearance. Ath-
letes can use the tailored
and fitted hybrid cage to
fine-tune their position-
ing and optimize their
power transfer. And a new-and-improved racing compensator improves the chair’s turning radius, while the brake lever can be placed anywhere on the steering handle according to each racer’s individual preference.

Obi Dining System
Mealtimes are more than just sustenance; they’re also social and emo- tional gatherings that feed the soul.
The Obi robotic dining companion makes it possible for people with physical disabilities — particularly those affecting their upper
extremities — to dine independently instead of having to be fed by companions.
The Obi system can be quickly set up by a caregiver to tailor the food delivery per the preferences of its user. Then the user controls the dining experience via two switches,
one that accesses the food that the user has selected, and the other that delivers the food to the user.
Patented Obi features and functions include multi-direc-
tional food capturing, portion control, spoon wiping and repositioning, all intended to make the dining experience as efficient and effective as possible. The Obi weighs about 7 lbs., which makes it easily transportable, and its rechargeable battery can provide up to four hours of service on a single charge so that Obi can function outside the home as well as inside it. Obi’s base and arm can be wiped down with a disinfecting wipe or
a wet towel, and Obi’s spoon, plate and placemat can all be washed by hand or in a dishwasher.
Obi has been successfully funded by Veterans Affairs, Workers’ Compensation and other payors, and the Obi team can supply info on reimbursement from private insurers and Medicaid programs. Obi can also be purchased as a retail system.
