Statement

People in wheel chair have a very limited range of reach especially for heights. With this limitation, they cannot experience pleasures such as that of picking peaches in summer. Design a device that will allow users in wheel chair to experience the joy of picking peaches from the tree and collect it in a basket while still in the wheel chair. The device must be manually operated and prevent damage to the fruit while picking it. The fruit should not fall on the ground while picking.
