I have polio-like paralysis and use a cane, brace, and wheelchair for mobility.
I am interested in art and creation, and I make something when I have time.

Making
- At the age of 4, she was diagnosed with polio-like paralysis. When moving, she used a brace on her left lower leg and a Lofstrand cane with both hands. On stairs, hold a cane in one hand and support the railing in the other.She studied art at a high art school in Nantes, France.
- -slipping on wet floors・Leave it with a caregiver on the stairs・Having trouble finding a place to put it・Rod slips on wet pool floor・Rods sink into the sand at the beach・Canes slip on icy roads・I have to leave a cane for a caregiver to climb the stairs・I have to put down the canes to use the hands
- One person.In order to expand the number of activities that can be done alone without the support of others, there is basically no one with me during activities.In order to increase my autonomy, there is hardly anyone with me to help me during my activities.
- Current crutches are heavy and have only one rubber tip not suitable for different types of soil.She only needs one crutch to climb the stairs, she has to carry the second one.
- Having both canes fixed to the body frees the arms/both hands, making it easier to perform activities using the hands while standing.For example, she can go up and down stairs without the help of others, or she can fix both canes to your body while working while standing.
- somehow "6".She is 60% satisfied with the many things she can do now.She want to be able to carry out her activities more independently. She want to be able to go out when it rains. This will allow her to maintain her muscle strength by walking more.
- Cane tip type ：for wet floors, sand, frozen roadsHow to connect to the tip of the cane and how to replace itAttachment structure ：magnet, plug-in typeTo put two sticks togetherHow to move by sticking to the body
Cane tip types：for wet ground, sandFixing :magnet, plug-in typeHow to wear them
- Cane tip with beautiful cherry blossom designPut a cane between the petals and fix itAlso supports frozen road surfaces with attachmentsCane tip with a beautiful cherry blossom patternUsed to secure the crutches between the petalsAlso supports frozen road surfaces with attachments
- The bottom is round and wide so that the cane does not get buried on the sandy beachHow sand falls down through holesThe holes are shaped like cherry blossom petals!
- →スキーのストックの様に２本を固定してみる→階段昇降時にベルトループ等に引っ掛けるが階段の段差に引っかかりやすい→カバンのループに着けると高さは良いが、身体の前に来てしまう※肩ぐらいの高さで身体の後ろで固定出来ると一番いいかも！

Previously, one clutch was carried by a caregiver, or two were held together in one hand.She could hold it all together, but she had a lot of anxiety
- It is customized with the angle to be used, and the contact area has increased, making it less slippery even on wet floors.The tip is customized with the angle to use and the increased contact area, which makes it less slippery even on wet floors.
- The filament (TPU) used this time could not completely eliminate the slipperiness, but I would like to improve the quality by modeling with EPU by stereolithography.Aiming for Multifunctionality by Combining Multiple Ideas
- Satisfaction is 9! ! !The design was excellent, and I was happy that I was able to create something that met my needs.
