Solutions to guiding questions

The elderly have difficulty pouring water, so I made this tumbler (不倒翁) so that they only have to push it.

P.S. I exported it from the model itself, that's why the resolution is so bad.

This is the model itself. ^

If it does not load, then just drag it out to your desktop, then open it from there. You should be able to access it if you have google sketchup installed.

Ergonomics and Anthropometry Part 1

1. Compare the two types of setup and state reasons why one of the setup is preferred.
2. What are the area of considerations when designing a conducive and comfortable workplace?
3. State the reasons why these considerations are important.

1. There is one where the table is piled full of files and there is minimal space for the occupant. The other is designed more ergonomically than the other one by using space-efficient and innovative devices.

2. They are -comfort
-accessibility to objects
-lighting
-space(movement)
-long time periods of laptop use
-desk space

3. They are the factors that will affect the amount of work the occupant produces, his concentration span, his attitude, etc.

P.S. I wish I had a desk like that too!(the ergonomic one!)

Classroom Work Desk Wait! there's background music! P.s. Go fullscreen


This time I added a desk under it! And I also added some background music. And, as usual, I always end with Smart Innovations : Making Life easier and that stick with light(it represents innovation!)

The Mac Worktable design


This is my worktable for the Mac.

When used as a worktable, the triangular support can be folded out by the axle, the long round thing with the support. The handles can be folded in.

When carried, the handles are folded out and the triangular support is folded in.(ref. to 2nd model.

Lastly, in compact mode (not shown), everything is folded in, to make a flat slab of metal.

2. Why are there problems for the elderly?
3. How do the problems surface?
4. What is the source of the problems?
5. Why do the elderly not want to go out?
