TS Assistance Band

TS Assistance Band - open-source assistive technology working model by the TOM International Community community

The challenge

This project is necessary as it addresses the observed tendency for unintended actions, such as throwing objects, which pose accident risks.

Who it helps

One of our fellow classmates, Leenah Ramos has Tourette syndrome and it interferes with some of her every day activities whether it'd be at home, school, or anywhere else in public.

How it works

This solution will effectively address the challenge by implementing a user-friendly mechanism designed to prevent unintended actions. By incorporating seamless and comfortable features, the solution ensures a proactive approach.

Our solution offers to prevent unintended actions for Leenah by designing a user-friendly product to secure her phone, ensuring a comfortable experience integral to her daily activities.
