International Paralympic Committee President Sir Phillip Craven made the statement to a crowd at the Games' closing ceremony earlier this month. He said the athletic event had found its pathway to the future.
Paralympic athletes were not the only ones making news this year. The attention was also on improvements in technology that helped those men and women compete.
Engineers David Sheffield and Doug Watt volunteer for a charity group called Remap. It designs technology to help disabled people.
The two engineers are designing a wheelchair for Shot Put thrower Shaun Sewell. He lost the use of his legs 13 years ago in a motorcycle accident. David Sheffield predicts the new wheelchair design will be used as a model for future athletes.伦敦残奥会被称为“史上最伟大的一届残奥会。”国际残奥委员会主席菲利普·克雷文（Phillip Craven）爵士本月初在残奥会闭幕式上对公众这样表示。他说，这一赛事找到了其未来的方向。
残奥会运动员并非今年唯一的主角。那些帮助运动员取得比赛的进步的高科技也很引人注目。
工程师大卫·谢菲尔德（David Sheffield）和道格·瓦特（Doug Watt）自愿参加了一个名为Remap的慈善组织。该组织为残疾人设计各种能够帮助他们的应用科技。
这两名工程师正在为轮椅铅球运动员肖恩·休厄尔（Shaun Sewell）设计轮椅。休厄尔13年前在一次摩托车事故中失去了双腿。大卫·谢菲尔德预计这一全新的轮椅设计今后将作为范本提供给更多的运动员。
