Abstract
[cat] HoldMate sorgeix a partir d’una necessitat específica que afecta a usuaris amb diversitat funcional motriu a la mà. El projecte aposta per oferir-los una major autonomia a l’hora de dur a terme tasques quotidianes que requereixen la subjecció d’un estri. Per fer-ho, s’emprèn una investigació prèvia sobre com pot afectar la diversitat funcional motriu a les mans, una anàlisi dels productes de suport que ofereix el mercat i es realitzen entrevistes a usuaris prèviament seleccionats.
A partir de la informació obtinguda, s’extreuen conclusions que confirmen una necessitat existent en aquest col·lectiu. Finalment, mitjançant la metodologia del disseny centrat en les persones i a través de la impressió 3D, es crea HoldMate, una eina que s’adapta a tota mena de mà -en forma i mida- que permet que usuaris amb diversitat funcional motriu a la mà puguin escriure i menjar de forma autònoma.
[eng] HoldMate arises from a specific need that affects users with motor functional diversity in the hand. The project aims to offer them greater autonomy when it comes to carrying out everyday tasks that require the attachment of a utensil. To do this, preliminary research is carried out on how it can affect motor functional diversity in the hands, an analysis of the support products offered by the market and interviews are carried out with previously selected users. Based on the information obtained, conclusions are drawn that confirm an existing need in this group. Finally, through the people-centered design methodology and through 3D printing, HoldMate is created, a tool that adapts to all kinds of hands - in shape and size - that allows users with motor functional diversity in the hand to write and eat by themselves.
