Hello, I am Thomas Eddie, and I am currently in my 5th Year at the University of Strathclyde. My final year project centres around the elderly with focus on the issue of falls and other injuries when navigating the home after surgery or living with a long-term condition. I feel that the mobility aids that are currently available are not particularly suitable for independent living and do not engage well with their target demographic. Therefore, I have developed some concepts that I feel are more suitable for the elderly and will improve their quality of life.

It is important to get feedback directly from users and those who are surrounded by users as this information is crucial to the success of the product. This will help me to adapt and change the product to better suit the user. If you have received this survey, I would greatly appreciate it if you could take the time to answers the questions and give your feedback on the ideas. The questions relate to the concepts below.

Thank you for your time and I hope you like the designs.
