Iwwer Barebag Series Modesch Prothesen

BareBag ass eng Serie vu drobaren Accessoiren, entwéckelt fir Leit mat ageschränkter Benotzung vun hiren Äerm oder Hänn, wéi zum Beispill déi, déi eng Verletzung oder Amputatioun erlieft hunn. BareBag säin innovativ entwéckelte Anti-Schwonk-Krop integréiert sech nahtlos an e modesche Accessoire an erlaabt et de Benotzer, all Tasch un hirer Taille ze hänken ouni hir Hänn ze benotzen. Seng ButterSlide Technologie erlaabt et de Benotzer och, de Riem ouni Méi mat nëmmen enger Hand ze ajustéieren. BareBag bitt e schlaue Wee fir d'Onofhängegkeet ze förderen an d'Liewensqualitéit vu senge Benotzer ze verbesseren.

Eenzegaarteg Eegeschaften: BareBag represents a universal, integrated solution for limited mobility and functionality for the millions of upper limb injured/amputees, who often struggle to carry their belongings and perform daily tasks with one hand. With versatile bag hooks integrated into cross-body fashion accessories, users can comfortably carry all types of bags at their waist hands-free. By solving a universal problem of busy hands, BareBag promotes social equity and improves the life quality for its users.
Dimensiounen & Verpackung: BareBag: 135mm x 50mm x 90mm

Produktiounstechnologie: BareBag is modularly assembled with a soft leather exterior and hard 3D-printed recycled PLA hook prosthetics. The modularity allows quick adaptation to configuration, and separate cleaning and recycling at the end of its life cycle. Its sustainable rPET strap is equipped with a 3D-printed slider specially engineered to enable smooth adjustment with one hand.
Design Erausfuerderung: The two main challenges during BareBag's development are maintaining the balance and stability of both BareBag and the carried bags, and inventing a strap slider mechanism for smooth one-hand adjustment. The wide-body hooks minimize bag-swinging or escaping while allowing the bag to slide in easily. BareBag's slider is re-engineered with a butterfly locking mechanism that allows the user to unlock with a simple pull, effortlessly adjust with one hand, and lock with a simple pinch. We iterated more than 50 prototypes to perfect the user experience.
Fuerschung: BareBag is a novel integration that differentiates itself from both fashion accessories and prosthetics. The research for active annual demand from disabled users resulted in more than 3.77 million people in the US alone. BareBag's development went through a 6-month user testing phase with more than 50 prototypes, optimizing the reliability, stability, ease of use, aesthetics, and sustainability.
Inspiratioun: BareBag started with a bike accident that broke one of its founder's arms. This sudden shift in life quality made him realize how inconvenient it is to do everything with only one hand. Especially when doing dumb labor like carrying bags, he had no hands to even use a phone. However, all the bag carriers on the market are bulky and make the user's disability more visible. BareBag's mission is then set to be an everyday fashion accessory that imperceptively becomes the user's additional hand.
Projetdauer: BareBag started in January 2023 in New York City and finished in December 2023 in New York City
Operatiounsablaf: By putting BareBag on like a cross-body bag, it blends into your style while being a prosthetic. With only one hand, unlock the strap slider by folding it up, and effortlessly slide it to adjust the strap length to fit your body. When you have bags to carry, simply hook the bag onto the integrated hook and let it grab the bags for you at waist level comfortably and stably, so your hands can be free to do more.
