KEMPF Inc. adapts motor vehicles to assist drivers with disabilities, providing controls that enable hands-on steering through configurations such as the digital accelerator ring. The company is based in Sunnyvale, California, and traces its heritage to a French firm started in 1954 by Jean-Pierre Kempf, who developed early hand-control devices after experiencing polio. KEMPF Inc. was established in 2007 to extend that legacy in the United States, initially serving disabled veterans in Tampa, Florida, before expanding its reach to a broader customer base. Its products are used by customers in more than 30 states, and the DARIOS digital accelerator ring allows a driver without use of both legs to keep both hands on the steering wheel, appearing as part of a vehicle's original equipment. The company offers a lifetime warranty on its adaptations and provides nationwide at-home pickup and delivery and service, with all products VA accepted.
