Visualization

Challenge & Selection

The first tool I used was the visualization tool. To make the stake holders to

understand the current problem of the situation. In the past six months ago I meet with the  knee surgery and I was bed ridden for around 1month. When I was in the hospital after the  post-surgery I was observed that some people are paralyzed and unable to convey their basic  needs to their attendees when they are not available near to them. So this situation impacts  me a lot so that this situation makes me to take a challenge and discover robustly something  to fulfil their basic need.

Application

After considering the situation, I made a survey that what are the various diseases

which are related to my considered situation. I found some list of the diseases like bell palsy,  brochasaphasia, partially paralysed, facial paralysis, etc. This are the major diseases which  was found the in my research.

After sorting the diseases, I researched depth in this diseases like what the key issues

they are facing, which country has the most patients, what type of the climate is favourable to  it, which is the increment percentage of this diseases from the past five years, etc. After my  research I conclude that if we can make one device which communicates with the patient’s  attendees for the basic needs and keep track of their health record for the future analysis.

I made a device by named patients gesture tracking and pulse monitoring through

IOT. What this device do means is will measure the gesture angles of the patients like if we  setup this device to the hand it will measure the hand gesture or if it is fixed to the foot it will  measure the foot gestures. Before we fix this device we will fix certain values for the  particular gesture depending upon their requirement. Whenever the patient make this gesture  this device will capture the movements and gives the certain type of the alarm sound for the  different gesture so that the attendee can know that what are they require so that they can  attend to them quickly.

In this device we also placing the pulse monitoring sensor and heart rate monitoring

sensor so that it will capture the each and data of the patient. We are connecting to the iot  severs so that it will store the data of the patient dynamically as time goes on. So by  uploading this data to the cloud we access this data whenever we want and it helps the doctor  to treat the patient as better as possible. And I started experimenting this device for the  various persons who are effected with this disease at the various locations and made a notes  of every person track record and found what are the pros and cons of this by selecting the  various persons of the different age groups.

Insight & Approach

What I learnt by conducting this experiment by the different groups is that this was

inconvenient to the person who are highly paralysed and bed ridden from many days they are  feeling some discomfort by wearing continuous this device. So I will make corrections in  constructing the design of the body which is more convenient for continuous wearing.

Since I discovered that the most valuable aspect is the shared insights and learning, by

using the visualization tool as a starting point for a series of design thinking activities. By  using this design tool, I rectified my major mistakes which I was stuck before.
