Project description
Aim: To develop a drinking vessel holder that can position and stabilize a cup for those with limited upper limb function. While many assistive devices exist, there are unique features required for this device to increase autonomy and dignity. Research and development required: Design and prototype a stabilizer with height adjustment that can hold a wine glass, cup, can, bottle or mug and support a straw to provide the ability to drink right to the bottom of the vessel independently. The user will have very limited upper arm and neck control.
