मानवीय एजेंसी के लिए डिज़ाइन | Rishi Krishna Iyer S | TEDxRathinam Technical Campus

2018 में Rishi Krishna Iyer S ने अपना दाहिना हाथ खो दिया और एक ऐसा कृत्रिम हाथ खोजा जिसे वे वास्तव में इस्तेमाल कर सकें। आयातित विकल्प महंगे थे और स्थानीय परिस्थितियों के लिए उपयुक्त नहीं थे, जबकि सस्ते विकल्पों में बहुत कम कार्यक्षमता थी। उन्होंने Niranjankumar Raghupathi के साथ मिलकर Symbionic की सह-स्थापना की, जो भारत में डिज़ाइन और असेंबल की गई मॉड्यूलर प्रणाली Krea Adaptive बनाती है। TEDxRathinam Technical Campus की इस वार्ता में बताया गया है कि उत्पाद और प्रणालियाँ लोगों की स्वतंत्रता को कैसे बढ़ा या सीमित कर सकती हैं।

• उपयोगी कृत्रिम हाथ की खोज का व्यक्तिगत अनुभव
• मॉड्यूलर Krea Adaptive प्रणाली
• भारतीय परिस्थितियों और उपयोगकर्ता की पसंद के अनुरूप डिज़ाइन

What does it mean to design for someone’s right to choose? Drawing on his experience of losing his right hand and building Symbionic, Rishi Krishna explores how products and systems can expand or restrict human agency. Through lessons from designing prosthetics, he shares why listening to people, offering meaningful choices, and understanding what matters to them should guide what we build. About In 2018 I lost my right hand. Then I went looking for a prosthetic arm. The imported ones cost more than a car and were built for conditions that do not exist here. The cheap ones did nothing. I had money, a network, and time, and I still could not find an arm I would actually wear. Most people in India who lose a hand have none of those three things. I co-founded Symbionic that year with Niranjankumar Raghupathi. We build the Krea Adaptive: a modular upper limb system with a quick-disconnect wrist, a 360-degree rotatable wrist, and four attachments covering the things people actually want back. Riding. Eating. Training. Working. Designed and assembled in India, for Indian conditions. People are using it across India. Some funded by corporate CSR, some by foundations, some who paid for it themselves. If you run CSR or a foundation funding disability or livelihood work in India message me here.
