Tested many hands with the original device and noticed many hands had difficulty staying on the key in order to conduct the proper testing on the device.
Project Problem: Collaboration with Marquette engineering students to redesign a finger dexterity test that is more cost efficient and prints using less materials and more ergonomic for patients.

Created models to find the best solution to being more comfortable for patients to use.
Created variations to solve the problem for hand rest, with inspiration from many objects that palms are rested on such as gear shifts and computer mouse. For finger placement, instead of all keys at equal lengths the middle to are shorter due to the middle and ring finger often being longer than the rest of the fingers. and to adjust for hand sizes the palm rests are able to move forward and backward. Lastly material usage for printing was accounted for in the final model.
In the final model, openings were made for the technology used for testing.
