DCAs development team have applied sensitive design with a practical analytical approach to projects in this field. When combined with experienced use of ergonomics and high levels of technical skill in mechanical engineering and electronics, this has allowed DCA to provide efficient and effective solutions to demanding design needs in this market.
DCA's portfolio of work contains the design and development of portable bath-lifts and mobility scooters for the elderly and infirm, as well as custom configurable electronic control systems for prosthetic hands and the development of advanced mechanical lower limbs and feet.
In a society with an ageing population, positive government discrimination to the disabled and cost containment leading to increased emphasis on outpatient rehabilitation, DCA’s design team welcome projects that provide opportunities to apply advances in technology and materials, through thoughtful design, to help resolve or mitigate problems that otherwise significantly reduce quality of life for increasing numbers of people.
