Assistive technology (AT) supports 2.5 billion people globally, yet 70% is abandoned due to poor fit, function, or aesthetics. Tidal is an online platform where users and healthcare professionals co-design personalised AT to reduce abandonment and improve outcomes. Integrated with local health services, it enables non-designers to create rigorously tested, locally fabricated solutions using recycled plastic and sustainable digital manufacturing.
