Ergonomics (Product description and Idea Trigger)


Describe the product: It's oval. There are three different colours, they have holes in between them. It is used for clipping socks.

What are the design considerations when designing this product?
The size of the finger holes, the size of the holes that clip the socks together.

Would an elderly faced difficulty using this product? If yes, what are the difficulties that the elderly would face?
Yes, he or she might. It might be difficult for them to open up the hole to put in the socks.

What do you think can be done to improve on the design of the product to suit the elderly? (Sketch the improved design in your sketchbook and take a picture of it. Post the improved sketch at the end of your post.)
