Empathetic Consumer Product Design
When injury relegated
designer Jeff Weber to life on crutches for an extended time, he realized that
the design of the standard issue crutch, which probably originated from the
crotch of a handy tree branch, was all wrong. Instead of resigning himself to misery,
as 4 million Americans do every year, he set out to do something about it. He
re-examined the problem and after years of research and development, landed
upon an entirely new assisted mobility solution, so agile, so functional and so
comfortable it actually facilitates mobility. Mobi equals active healing.
