Project background
In a gym there are not many pieces of equipment that a person in a wheelchair can easily use. This client is looking for a way to adapt a rowing machine in his gym so that it can be used by a person in a manual wheelchair.

Your task would be to adapt an existing rowing machine so that someone can roll up to it and attach themselves to it independently to be able to exercise with it. It should be intuitive to use and easy to maintain. It should also be easy to clean like other gym equipment.
