Robotic Eating Aid
March 3, 2009 | Terry Sharrer
Bestic is a Swedish company that makes a robotic arm to assist a disabled person with eating. It can cut food on a plate, and present it to the mouth, via a joy stick or control buttons. The device was developed by the Promobilia Foundation, Robotdaler, and the Swedish Institute of Assistive Living, all three of which have links to their other activities on the Bestic site. MORE
