Plate III. Assistive device, 2025
Grip Assist
A 3D-printed utensil cuff for users with limited grip strength, designed in collaboration with an occupational therapist.
Context
Short brief of the problem, who it was for, and the constraint that shaped the project. Keep this to a paragraph — enough to orient a reader who’s scanning.
Process
Walk through the real work. For a physical project, this is where you earn the reader’s trust — show the sketches, the prototypes, the things that didn’t work.
- Interview and observation notes
- First-principles sketch
- 3D printed iteration one — too stiff
- Iteration two — adjusted flexure geometry
- Fit testing
Outcome
What landed. If it shipped, where. If it didn’t, what you learned. Numbers if you have them, a quote if you don’t.
