No
The description focuses on mechanical and electrical components and control mechanisms, with no mention of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No.
The device is a mobility aid for transportation, not a device used for treating or curing a medical condition.

No

The device is described as an indoor/outdoor electric scooter intended to provide mobility, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical scooter with a metal frame, wheels, seat, motor, brakes, and batteries, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Function: The eFOLDI Scooter, Lite is a mobility device. Its function is to provide transportation and aid mobility for individuals with limitations. It does not analyze any biological samples or provide diagnostic information.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "indoor transportation vehicle with the intended use to provide mobility to a disabled or elderly person limited to a seated position." This is a functional aid, not a diagnostic tool.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical components and operation of a scooter, not equipment for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of Relevant Information: The document lacks any mention of biological samples, assays, reagents, or any other elements associated with in vitro diagnostics.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the eFOLDI Scooter, Lite is a mobility device and not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description

The eFoldi Scooter. Lite is an indoor/outdoor electric scooter that is intended to be used by individuals that are able to walk but suffer from mobility limitations. It has a base with metal alloy frame, one front wheels, two rear wheels, a seat, an adjustable steering column, a tiller console, an electric motor, an electromagnetic brake, 2 rechargeable Lithium-Ion Battery with an off-board charger. The movement of the scooter is controlled by the rider who operates the throttle lever, speed control handle on the tiller console. The device is installed with an electromagnetic brake that will engage automatically when the scooter is not in use and the brake cannot be used manually. The Scooter only can be operated on the flat road or slopes less than 6 degrees. The scooter is foldable.

The scooter has a physical dimension of 117 (depth) x 55 (width) x 95 (height) cm, with the seat itself has a dimension of 36 (depth) x 36 (width) x 50 (height) cm. The footrest is 10 cm in height. The scooter is foldable, and the folded dimension is 65 (Long) x 55 (width) x 37 (height) cm.

The device has a weight capacity of 120 kilograms, and weighs about17 kilograms with battery (15 kilograms without battery). The color is dark grey.

The scooter consists of three wheels, a mechanical main frame, seat, handle, and Polyurethane artificial leather upholstery that is ignition resistant.

The frame of the scooter is made of magnesium alloy.

The scooter uses aluminum alloy wheels and has a diameter of 25.4 cm (10 inch) and the front wheel has a diameter of 20.3 cm (8 inch). Both front wheels use solid tires and the back wheel is pneumatic tire.

The scooter has a motor of 24V and 180 Watt, which allows a maximum speed of 6 kilometers per hour, and maximum travel range of 15 kilometers. It brakes by electromagnetic effect on the front wheel.

The wheel lock is in the form of electromagnetic force to apply mechanical resistance to the front wheels to force stop.
