Other new options include: Switch-It Ctrl+5 Buttons and Toggles, which allow the user to access five seating functions through either toggle switches or buttons, include a USB port, and may also be mounted in various locations on the wheelchair; and the Switch-It Dual Pro head array, which has fine-tuned adjustments and customizations to provide the user an easy-to-learn, precise, and intuitive driving experience.
