Prototype based on the movie we received from Tiene
In the movie, you can see that Brenda has the problem that her elbow keeps falling off her pillow. As a result we designed a similar pillow (because Tiene said that she really likes the pillow they are using now, it really helps a bit), but with some sort of bandage to put her arm in, so she can't fall off of it anymore. The pillow also has some velcro on the bottom, allowing the pillow to stay in its place (if Tiene agrees that we put a little bit of velcro on Brenda's table too).
Test (18/03/'16)
Expected negative:
Expected negative:
- We couldn't attacht the pillow on the table with the velcro (because we couldn't stick any velcro to the surface), so the pillow wouldn't stay on the place it should. We should think of another way of attaching the pillow to the table.
Expected positive:
- When we held the pillow in its place, her arm was always in the right position to eat. Tiene thinks we should work further on this this prototype instead of "Prototype 6", because Brenda reacted much better to this one. Probably because they already use some kind of pillow now, and she is used to this idea.

Unexpected positive:
- It was already the right height for her elbow, so we don't need to adapt the form of the pillow.
- Tiene really liked the idea of using velcro to put her elbow onto the pillow, because she drinks a lot between eating, and with the velcro they can easily untie her elbow allowing her to drink.

Unexpected negative:
- Tiene worries that the textile could hurt her, so she suggested using some more flexible textile
- Brenda got annoyed because we needed to hold the pillow to stay in it's place. We need a prototype we can attach to the table and her elbow really fast, because otherwise she gets really impatient.

Score: Brenda/ Tiene gave us a score of 7/10
She really likes the idea of working with the pillow, but we need a better method to attach it to the table. She's also worried that the textile we're using now (an old t-shirt, so not very flexible) would cut in her arm and that it would her (because she gives a lot of force onto this textile to scoop up her food), so she suggested that we could try using some flexible material.
