Challenge Kamekichi

The challenge

The Challenges

1. A solution for the rear view mirror to be safely attached to a wheelchair.

2. Ideas on how to set up the environment so that there is no strain on the neck and shoulders when using a tablet PC.

Who it helps

Saki Kamekichi has paralysis in both arms and legs from cerebral palsy, but she leads an active life, going out on her own in an electric wheelchair and using a tablet computer.

However, the rear view mirror attached to her wheelchair is not correct so she is worried when she goes out by herself. She also has severe shoulder and neck stiffness when using a tablet PC, which makes it painful to sit at the computer.
