technology + creativity + community

Rochester Institute of Technology has been a pioneer in inclusive educa-tion in the United States and Worldwide. The National Technical Institute for the Deaf (NTID), recognized by U.S. News & World Report as one of America’s “Best College Values,” and by The Princeton Review as one of the top 20 colleges nationwide for “Best Career Services”, is only part of the efforts endured by faculty and students to cooperate with people with special needs.

For the past 3 years, RIT along with Regional Health and Non Profit Or-ganizations have looked for new and relevant opportunities for students to gain experience while helping the community solve real issues. As part of these efforts, there are current projects that have been developed with NPOs, and represent great potential.

This year thanks to The Simone Center for Student Innovation and Entrepreneur-ship and the School of design (MFA Industrial Design Program), a multidisciplinary team of students working along with the National Multiple Sclerosis So-ciety and the Association for the Blind and Visually Impaired, developing potential solutions to help patients with MS to transport between different seating surfaces and designing inclusive technology accessories to help visually impaired users to efficiently interact with touchscreen devices.

PROJECT 1

Vision:A world free of MS.

Mission:The mission of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is to mobilize people and resources to drive research for a cure and to address the challenges of everyone affected by MS.

Challenge

It is difficult for many disabled individuals to move from their vehicle to a scooter or wheelchair independently. The use of a transfer board helps but there are many problems for the user. How might we de-sign an object that would make it easier to transfer people from the driver’s seat of a vehicle to their wheelchair or scooter?

PERSONA 1.Kerrie

- 35 year old mother of 2.- Active lifestyle.- Challenges that impede transfer: spasticity, weakness, balance, fatigue, weather conditions, difficulty lifting legs into vehicle.- Uses walker or manual wheelchair.

PERSONA 2.Dan

- 60 years old- Lives alone, very little support

- Very independent

- Challenges that impede transfer: fatigue,

weakness, cannot bear weight, difficulty slid-

ing on transfer board

- Uses scooter.

Currently, Don uses a transfer board which ex-

pends significant energy, adding to his fatigue.

Don is unable to maneuver effectively on the

board unless he is wearing clothes that slide

easily.

PERSONA 3.Allison

- 30 years old.- Does not drive, transfers into passenger side.- Challenges that impede transfer: unable to use transfer board, weakness, balance/coordination issues, must rely on another individual to lift legs.- Uses manual wheelchair.

ANALYSING SITUATIONSAllison

A transfer board is not an option for Allison. Currently, she will stand using the vehicle door and handles, which is unsafe.

She will then lower her body onto the seat and must rely on someone to lift her legs into the vehicle. This process is often em-barrassing for Allison and compromises her independence and feelings of dignity.

SOLUTION 1.Kerrie / Allison

1. The Concept is made of two mo- ving handles with a rail positioned on the roof of the car, and a band con-nected two of them which help user push the handles if it out of reach. Users can put them aside when they are done. These handles can help us-ers position themselves from wheel-chair to car seat.

SOLUTION 2. Don

3. This concept is a foldable crutch that can be folded into a very small size and user can install it on the side of the car. When user need it, they can open the car door and unfold it, there will be a bar that user can use it to hold themselves.

SOLUTION 3. Kerrie

2. This concept is a foldable bar positioned on the roof of the car, users can easily unfold it when they are trying to transfer themselves from the wheelchair to the car, while they can hold the bar when they move their bodies.
