Co-designing Personalised Assistive Technology

"In the initial session the researcher will work with the participants to identify challenges in daily living for the device to overcome.~In between sessions the researcher will design and manufacture different solutions which will then be sent out for the participant to trial. The participant will then meet with the researcher to and feedback on the device provided. Feedback from the user is used to alter and improve the design of the device; new device(s) are then , enabling the design to be adapted to the participants needs. The process of design changes and feedback forms an iterative loop. This is expected to continue for 4-5 appointments over a period of serveral months until a final design is agreed upon.~After the device is issue, both qualitative and quantitative outcome measures are provided to participants to complete, including questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. ."
