Looks like a right angle drive on the motors. Are they worm gear drives or bevel gear drives? Are they stock off the shelf wheelchair motors? What size/quantity of batteries do you have? With 4 motors how is battery life?

The motors are equipped with right angle drives...the gear boxes have helical gear sets. The motors are a standard 24v wheelchair motor. We are using two 12v SLAs to provide the 24 volts required by the motors. Battery life is surprisingly good for a four wheel drive wheelchair.

We are currently at MIT as part of a two day exhibition by the Lemelson MIT InvenTeams. When we return from MIT we will be posting pictures, video and detailed specs for the Jester drive wheelchair.
