Tech Tuesday - Eating aids (Bestic)

Описание: Today's episode of Tech Tuesday looks at a switch operated eating aid called the Bestic.
This clever robotic arm is fitted with a spoon that's controlled by the push of a switch.

If this doesnt fit your needs there are a lot of other options available. If you would like to discuss options with an occupational therapist you can call the Independent Living Centre WA on 1300 885 886 to discuss or book a consultation.
