Shopping Basket Hook

Shopping Basket Hook - open-source assistive technology prototype by the TOM International Community community

The challenge

Daijiro,who lives alone and uses a wheelchair, is having trouble carrying a shopping basket while moving around in his wheelchair. Currently, he always does small purchases without using a shopping basket, but he wants to be able to shop more easily.

Who it helps

This product is designed for people riding wheelchairs. He has trouble moving around while holding a shopping basket when shopping.

How it works

There will be no need to constantly support a shopping basket with my hands. Using an elastic band allows for some flexibility while keeping the shopping basket fixed on my lap.
