Client Information
Managing ADHD is done with different coping skills and is highly dependent on the individual. Some people use fidget tools as sensory distractions to build focus and be more calm. Depending on the sensory needs at a particular time different tools are required. Your task is to create a reconfigurable fidget tool which can be put together in a cube or as a flat surface depending on the needs. Possible tools are:
  1. Buttons of different strengths
  2. A rolling component with different surface textures
  3. A squishy part, kind of like a bouncy ball
  4. A surface with changing textures
  5. A lighting component
Past attempts
There has been no previous attempt to solving this problem.
