CMF PROJECT for stroke rehab wearable



insights + painpoints Stroke rehabilitation is a painful process. The distressing fact is that an unsuccessful rehabilitation training can worsen stroke patients’ temporary mobolity loss to permanent disbilities:

85% of stroke patients lose confidence in the process of rehabilitation due to the deficiency of real-time feedback on their mobility status.

Caregivers (medical staff / patients’ family members) cannot intuitively learn the remaining mobility of stroke patients, thus 90% stroke patients‘ dependence are oftenly increased by “OVER-CARE.“

57% Physical therapists fail to enlighten patients about next-step treatment according

to the patients’ rehab data gathered during therapy.


“ It went bad inside, it’s disconnected, I can’t see through my skin to know if it’s getting better or worse.” - Alex L

Patient at Laguna Honda Hospital

“ I was able to stand up with my cane three months ago, then they gave me this wheelchair, now I can no longer stand on feet since I gained weight.” - Rob Patient at San Francisco Health Care and Rehab center

“ I have to commute a lot to see my therapist weekly. I know I should have been more motivated, but most of the time I feel pointless.” - Mia Prior patient at stanford stroke center

technology

Biomedical monitoring the system is based on a textile wearable interface implemented by integrating sensors, electrodes, and connections in fabric form.

pressure-sensitive fiber MIT Materials Research Laboratory has developed a tension-detective, color-changing fiber that is currently used for blood pressure compression therapy.


Inspirational objects

conductive rubber highly conductive and flexible, making it an ideal matrial for wearables.

electrodes for impedance measure electrode sensor helps monitor electrical muscle activities. Due to electrodes’ flexibility, textile prototypes are feasible.


anatomy consideration + prototype

muscles and veins on limbs

after attending Stanford’s open lecture on human body structure and reading open resource about limb anatomy, I gained an understanding on muscle distribution.

descover the flow

I mapped out veins and muscles on myself and sorted the major overlapping area to several reflecting parts.


Discussion support: wearable monitoring product --- UCSF Innovation team tensile color-changing fabric linked with muscle tension --- Berkeley Materials Science and Engineering

fabric print prototype

with the help of fabric printer and AI, I mocked up pressure-detective fabric and its visual reactions of muscle movement. While the active muscle changes color of the strings on the fabric, the unchanged, gray strings represent muscle‘s deactivation. After presenting and user testing to stroke patients, I refined the design and move further on fabric considerations.

color theme 1


The piece stands for self-expression and aims to motivate and empower the elderly. This theme is inspired by distinct parting lines of artificial limb, the semi-glossy finish of race cars and electric guitar, and the resilient virtue of silicon. The garment is full of energy with a synthetic fusion. The crimson TPE charging cord with matte finish creates contrast with the green accent, intensifying the energetic facet.

Distilling color of each representatives, I keep the overall tone with same saturations. A yellow touch like the back patch of jeans serves as a comforting distraction. Fabric wide I choose cotton Lycra since its visual acceptance and mentally smoothing to the elderly who are new to smart garments.

color theme 3


This piece is exclusively designed for Fashion lovers. Patients at rehab centers tend to wear fine shirts under plain uniforms. They say it’s a way to dress with personality and maintain dignity under tough circumstance. The garment outshines daily outfits with sleek glamours and gradient classic touch. Purple spandex velvet serves as a personalized accent while offers great flexibility and permeability to the garment.



fabric and textile I collected fabric samples and tried to use loom to weave conductive fiber into everyday fabric and test its elasticity, permeability, conductivity and skin irratation.

A versatile crossbody fishing bag designed for flexible fishing experience.


statment How much will an ergonomically-crafted, all-in-one wearable fishing bag transform fishing experience? Noah is a cross-body fishing bag which fulfills all the needs of a fisherman - from posture shifting to versatile carrying and smart storage. Best of all, Noah is also able to splash fashion to your fishing adventure.


problems position shifting

“Fishing requires you to do lots of squats and standups, to grab things down then adjust things up front”

timing

“I keep gears close to me as to grab whatever I need at the very second.”

flexibility

“Plastic bags are lightweight, easy deal with, but fragile. I put sharp gears in tackle box, It’s safer. I’d love to have something good at both“

principles

durable strap must be comfy to carry, durable to use

accessible the bag should allow for people to easily and quickly take things out

comfortable the form of the bag should be flexible to use during position shifting


fashionable

configurable

portable fashion must be versatile and adjustable

tackle modules should be capable to take out and attached onto nearby object while fishing.

form and space development

behavior study

after closely studying fishermen’s behaviors, I realize that they prefer bags worn on the front/waist, in where space are not utilized well by their current equipments.

volume test

I hand out suervey to fishermen to analyse the minimal amount of gears they’d need for fishing.


connection method

some gears are one-time setup required while others need to stay within reach all the time. the detachment of belt and bag fulfills individuals’ personal needs.

prototype + user test

I kept bring prototypes back to river and collecting ergonomic feedback from user testing.
