Research Study 126 / 200

Care and wellbeing products are difficult to hold and set down

Users need extra assistance to move, set down and pick up devices.

Research direction: Health services and wellness productsProblem identification → Design validation → Implementation

Three-step solution method

  1. Observe everyday handling postures, support points and use environments.
  2. Explore grip areas, base surfaces, and accessory supports.
  3. Refine the form through everyday task trials with a range of users.

Key Deliverables

  • Pick-Up and Placement Study
  • Grip Models
  • Support Concepts

Verification Approach

Compare successful pick-ups and placements, compensatory movements, and how often assistance is needed.

Translating research into products and services
