Many people who have a weak or unsteady grip, or are unable to mobilize their fingers, whether by age or by other underlying health conditions, may find it hard to hold small objects in order to complete everyday tasks such as eating, writing, typing, or even brushing one’s teeth. The device in mind is an aid to mimic grip that wraps around the hand and holds small everyday objects that require precise movement to complete a task. Some tools that need a precise movement are eating utensils such as spoons and forks, writing or drawing utensils such as pens and paintbrushes, or even used to attach styluses in order to type better, as seen in the image below.
Tips:
Print Device on its side with organic supports to reduce printing cost and time.
Additional idea:
For a most optimal device function, one can tailor existing spoons, forks, pens, pencils, and brush handles, to fit the design more perfectly.
