Adaptive Tech Innovations

It all started when Mr. Robinson introduced us to Tim on Skype and his daughter told us about his disabilities and struggles throughout day-to-day life. We were able to connect and communicate with Tim only a handful amount of times, so we tried to learn about his struggles to the best of our ability. Our idea was to create a simplified remote to aid him in using the television. This remote would get rid of the less important functions on the remote only leaving the necessary remote, so he doesn’t accidentally press a random button. The skills me and my group developed included was using Tinkercad to design the remote, we also practiced our creative and critical thinking skills in the process of designing the remote. I would post a picture of the remote to show the skills in action, but… I lost the picture, oops. I feel I have met my learning goals just adequately, I could definitely improve on my time management. In conclusion, I believe the collaboration went pretty well, and I learned lots of things about Hunting-sons disease and about 3D printing and designing. Overall, I feel good about the experience and hope to tinker with Tinkercad in the future.
