Man in motorized wheelchair facing right: dark skin tone Emoji
People
A dark-skinned man seated in a modern electric mobility scooter, oriented toward the right. The design highlights the bulky motorized base and the joystick controls used for navigation.
Usage Context
Used to discuss accessibility, urban navigation, or the experiences of people with mobility disabilities. It is often shared alongside ♿ to signify accessible locations or events. This version uses skin tone modifiers to represent a specific person rather than a generic icon.
History
Motorized wheelchairs were added to the Unicode standard in 2019 as part of a major push to increase disability representation in digital communication. This specific variation combines the base wheelchair emoji with a ZWJ (Zero Width Joiner) sequence to pair the man emoji with the motorized wheelchair, following the expanded effort to provide more inclusive gender and skin tone options.
