LIMITATIONS & FUTURE DEVELOPMENT
The DressyBars successfully satisfy the user’s and client’s requirements set forth for a device to assist Elsa
in putting a shirt on independently. However, the original design opportunity included building a device
which incorporates both putting on and taking off a shirt. While the taking off mechanism is not included
in our final prototype, we developed a design concept which could be incorporated into the same device
with some further development. Figure 17 shows a representation of what our device might look like with
both mechanisms incorporated. Below you will find a discussion of how our mechanism for removing
would work, and our design concept and rationale for each of its components.
