Seatbelt Attachment

About this project

Lever attachment to seat belt to assist with leverage and accuracy when pulling the seatbelt across one's body into the buckle.

The challenge

Design a stabilization product that is attachable in any car so that Harper can buckle her seatbelt without assistance.

Who it helps

Harper is a young girl who struggles to buckle her seatbelt independently. She needs to use two hands to pull the belt across her body, and thus cannot stabilize the buckle.
