dc.descriptionME450 Capstone Design and Manufacturing Experience: Winter 2010en_US
dc.description.abstractShowering in a bathtub is a key barrier for the rapidly growing geriatric generation. Based on previous ME 450 projects of designing a shower chair our team will improve the chair to prepare it for commercial use. This project is sponsored by Albert Shih, Naomi Gilbert, and Susan Murphy. The new shower chair should allow independence for an elderly person to get into and out of the bath safely. It will also be able to fold up in the shower to allow others to use the shower as well. The device will help geriatric patients safely bathe while maintaining privacy and stability.en_US
