Проектирование для человеческой свободы выбора | Rishi Krishna Iyer S | TEDxRathinam Technical Campus

В 2018 году Ришi Кришна Айер С потерял правую руку и начал искать протез, которым мог бы пользоваться. Импортные модели были дорогими и плохо подходили к местным условиям, а дешевые почти не давали функциональности. Вместе с Ниранджанкумаром Рагхупати он основал Symbionic, которая разрабатывает модульную систему Krea Adaptive, собираемую в Индии. Выступление на TEDxRathinam Technical Campus посвящено тому, как продукты и системы могут расширять или ограничивать свободу человека.

• Личный опыт поиска пригодного протеза руки
• Модульная система Krea Adaptive
• Проектирование с учетом условий в Индии и выбора пользователя

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.
