Name: Shaini
Age: 10
Background: Shaini is a bright and determined child who lost four fingers on her left hand, making precise control difficult. Despite this, she remains active and engaged, with a strong passion for music and learning.

Shaini enjoys a variety of activities, including:

• Playing the violin: She loves expressing herself through music.
• Independence in tasks: Shaini desires to perform self-care and daily activities independently.
• Creative hobbies: Drawing and crafting are ways she explores her artistic side.

A modular, 3D-printed hand mount that allows interchangeable attachments for different tasks. It can securely hold tools, giving Shaini control over her self-care activities with ease. The mount is designed for comfort, flexibility, and long-term usability.

Specialized clothing with Velcro fasteners, elastic shoelaces, and button hooks can make dressing easier. Magnetic or loop-based zippers help her manage clothing adjustments independently.

Touchless soap dispensers, pump-free toothpaste holders, and bidet attachments reduce the need for precise hand movements, making personal hygiene more manageable.

The Adaptive Hand Mount is a flexible, 3D-printed solution that helps individuals with limited hand mobility use everyday tools. Its adjustable design ensures comfort and independence for tasks like self-care and creative activities.

• Creating a modular attachment system with easy interchangeability.
• Using adjustable straps to ensure a snug and comfortable fit.
• Designing an ergonomic grip structure to enhance usability.
• Incorporating a lightweight frame to minimize strain.
• Using different materials for flexibility and strength.

The mount is a custom-fitted device that attaches to Shaini’s hand, allowing her to securely hold and use different tools. It features a modular attachment system, where different tools—such as a violin bow mount or a comb mount—can be easily connected and swapped as needed.
