Darbuka 1.0
About this project
The team built a holder which fixes a tablet computer to the table, so the child cannot throw it when they are frustrated. They also installed a darbuka (bongo drum) app and provided their own music without disturbing others.
The challenge
Children living with autism often use music to calm themselves down, but they need an option they could use in school that won't disrupt the whole class.
Who it helps
The need knowers are children with autism
