How can we measure success?

Dr. Rob Siston, an assistant professor in the college of Mechanical Engineering, believes that the success of our project can be measured in the happiness of the child.

Post-Design Functional Analysis

The current goal for this project is to have the new walker designed and built in the winter of 2008 so that additional functional analyses can be performed in the spring of 2008. We will perform the second round of functional analyses using similar methods to the first set of analyses to validate the clinical benefits of the new walker.
