Strand 4- Developing a Detailed Design Brief

Raynaud's Disorder

Brief:

I will be attempting to create a sort of cost efficient aluminium glove that will help people with Raynaud's disorder perform day to day tasks without problem like holding an ice tray or cold drink. 

Design Brief:

Most people who are affected by Raynaud's disorder can not perform day to day tasks because of their rare disorder that affects their body physically when they touch cold objects or get near them. A person affected by this will suffer major damage in their limbs. If a person would wear ordinary gloves this would temporarily reduce the stress and effects however the effects will be the same.

That is why I have thought of creating a thicker version of gloves that is cost efficient and reliable. The material of this would be made of aluminium. I decided to create this design made of aluminium for many reasons, Aluminium is a cheap item because it is recycled very easily and because it has high melting points and low freezing points. It is a good cold absorbent making it a very effective material for the design. The average price of aluminium per gram is 1.5 dollars making cheap. The reason why aluminium is very effective constructively is because it has a high rate density making tough and not become rusty easier. This will help with removing low temperature contact with the person.
