Insert brief descriptions and visuals (try to relate them to our defined problem areas)…

Silicone Dish Stabilizer:
- Holds dishes in place in the sink, preventing them from sliding around and allowing users to scrub them without stabilizing the dish themselves
- This silicone sink add on attaches to the sides of the sink and comes together in the center of the opening leaving a small circle shape
- The shape is designed so that plates and bowls can rest in the silicone support straps and water/ waste can still make it down the drain
S-shaped silicone hook:
- Hook that assists user with hanging clothing and items that are hard to remove with the use of one hand
- Stereotypical intended use – hanging sweatshirts and sweaters
Ball Joint Vacuum:
- Ball joints are used in manufacturing assemblies to compensate for movement
- We noticed it was very difficult to manuver a large vacuum with the use of only one arm. Vacuums can be bulky, heavy and hard to turn.
- A vacuum with the suction head attached with a ball joint that has a greater turn radius alivieates the challenge with stabelizing and manuvering a vacuum

The Zipper Helper:
- The purpose is to assist the user in holding clothing stable while fastening zippers and buttons while folding/hanging clothes
- Utilizes stabilizing bar and clamps to hold garments in place
- The adjustable rail allows the device to be used on various sized clothing
The Cleaning Pouch:
- The purpose is to assist the user in carrying and moving many objects at once
- The device is meant to be worn over the user’s chest with the strap wrapped over their shoulder in order to attach the “pouch” to the user
- The flap helps keep items inside during transport
The EZ Lift Table:
- The purpose is to assist the user in lifting and moving large objects
- The tilting platform allows the user to easily load objects onto the table
- Locking wheels allow the user to stabilize the table during unloading and loading
- Adjustable height allows the user to load and unload objects at the desired height
Handheld Cleaning Mouse:
This product will combine a spray cleaner and rag into one. It will allow a user to spray and wipe with virtually no time between the process and reduces the difficulty of ripping paper towels from a roll.

Velcro Fashion Tape:
This product will help users fasten their clothes easily with one hand. All they have to do is attach the fashion tape to the sides of their garment that they want to stick together and attach the velcro ends to one another.
Shirt “Clamp”
This product could also help users fasten and stabilize their clothes with one hand. One side of their shirt would be clipped with the clamp (shown in green), and the user can stabilize their shirt and clamp by placing the suction cup (shown in blue) on to a surface. While their shirt is held in place, they can use their free hand to fasten their garment.
Table Cleaning “Blade”:
This device will allow users to clear a surface quickly instead of relocating products by hand. The clamp (shown in orange) can be placed on a table’s edge and the lever (shown in blue) can be used to control the blade (shown in green) that swipes items off of a surface.

- The Torso stabilizer essentially functions as an exoskeleton to the user but without the bulkiness of the current ones designed. Some additional features that can be customized or removed include a vest, belt, emergency button to stop the vest’s weight distribution, and thigh support pads.
- A Fanny pack that is designed to handle a bunch of miscellaneous items at once.
- A scooper clamp designed to clean off a small table very quickly [functions similar to a pooper scooper]
Tyler- 1. A piece of velcro that sticks to clothing, so that when going to fasten the clothing together it is easier because they will be closer together allowing for the button or zipper to be easier to fasten.
2. A step ladder that has a piece carved out specifically so you can lean your leg in it allowing for your leg to have more stability
.
3. Fanny pack that garbage bags can put inside of, so trash can easily be thrown inside with one hand; and non trash can be put inside while the area is being cleaned off
