The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical and electrical components and standard safety testing, with no mention of AI or ML.
No.
The Buzzaround is a mobility device designed to provide transportation for individuals limited to a seated position, not to treat or diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device description indicates that the Buzzaround is a 3-wheeled, battery-powered scooter for mobility. Its intended use is to provide mobility to persons limited to a seated position. There is no mention of diagnostic functions or capabilities.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical, battery-powered scooter with mechanical and electrical components, not solely software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to provide mobility to individuals with limited mobility. This is a physical function, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description details a physical mobility device (a scooter) with mechanical and electrical components. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or performing diagnostic tests.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analysis of biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detection or measurement of analytes
- Diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions based on biological samples.
The device is clearly a mobility aid, falling under a different regulatory category than IVDs.

Device Description
The Buzzaround is a three wheeled battery powered scooter. It has a 70-amp controller, which is used to operate the Buzzaround. The two-piece base of the scooter is made of welded steel construction. The drive unit is separable from the floor pan and includes spaced apart, differentially connected rear wheels (2) and an electric motor with a gear housing. It comes standard with a removable fold down scat, which is connected, to the drive unit frame via a pedestal and seat post concentrating the users weight over the rear wheels to aid in traction. All seating meets California Bulletin 117 fire standards. The Buzzaround comes standard with a compact removable 24-volt battery pack and on or off board charger and has an operating range of 10 to 15 miles on a full charge. The front and rear frames can be separated for stowage and transportation. It has intelligent electronic regenerative braking and a disc parking brake. The weight capacity is 300-lbs and it has a maximum speed of 4.5-mph

Common or Usual Name: 3-Wheeled scootcr
Classification Name: Motorized Three-Wheel Vehicle
Comparison to Predicate Devices:
The product, which is substantially equivalent to the Buzzaround, is the Companion 221, (K012258). They are both controlled by the use of a paddle type potentiomctcr, with onboard batteries and battery charger. All safety features are equivalent.
Device Description:
The Buzzaround is a three wheeled battery powered scooter. It has a 70-amp controller, which is used to operate the Buzzaround. The two-piece base of the scooter is made of welded steel construction.
