Health Play

Health Play

Group: Sam Mitchell, Emma Mallen, Ahana Kothari, Olinga William Leung, Rhob Edwards.
This project focuses on patients suffering from psoriasis. Psoriasis is a chronic and acute condition of the skin that has detrimental effects on the patient’s quality of life, self esteem and self perception.
The project brief is to design both an improvement of the toy and a related website to ensure parents and healthcare professionals can monitor the patients behavior in relation to their condition and the toy.
