OVE - bottle preparation

Solution for blind parents

For blind or visually impaired parents preparing a baby bottle is one of the hardest things to do. When preparing baby bottles most of these parents rely on the help of others. So we asked ourselves: “How might we use multi-sensory feedback to guide a visually impaired parent through the bottle-feeding process and make them more independent in raising their children?” OVE is a baby bottle preparation station designed to help visually impaired parents in the process of making a baby bottle. By means of bright lights, audible feedback, and tactile information the parent is guided through the process of preparing a baby bottle.

WINNER STATEMENT

We are very pleased to get this iF recognition for OVE. It proves to us that inclusive design as target doesn't mean a sacrificial end-product. Instead it was very rewarding to be able to work on a project for people with a form of vision impairment and make it work for everybody. Making products work for everyone is something we all should strive for.
