Purpose

Many people in the world rely on helping aids.

Whether you have a hearing disability, are blind, 

or have another disability, it is important that 

you can get help.

There are not enough hands in this world to 

help these people in need.

Therefore, your job is to invent and design 

a product that can help them.

Your creative brain will have to come into action 

– and remember, use your imagination!

Task

1. Find pictures of these 4 helping aids and
   find a new functions for each one of them.
   •       Wheelchair 
   •       Walking stick
   •       Glasses
   •       Hearing aid

2. Remember to imagine wild ideas:
   What if the wheelchair could fly
   or the hearing aid be invisible?
3. Choose one of your ideas.
4. Turn your idea into a new product. 
5. You can either draw it or create it
   from recycled material.

Test yourself!

Here is an extra challenge to test if you are good at coming up
with ideas when it seems more difficult and impossible:

• What if your robot were to solve the same problem
  in the year 2092?

• What if, at the same time, there was war in the country
  where Covid-19 is and the roads were impassable?

• What if the robot had to be disinfected after
  visiting every single patient?
