What started as a project to help one student has since evolved into a mission to deliver low cost assistive technology to individuals globally
|
HOW IT BEGAN
We set out to develop an improved device for a second-grader who was living with AMC (arthrogryposis multiplex congenita), a condition which causes weakness and contractures in the limbs. Given that there were limited high quality options on the market, we were determined to develop a device to help this student and others in need. Summit Assistive Tech was founded to develop high quality assistive devices for those in underserved populations.
OUR MISSION
To enable patients with conditions that restrict upper body mobility to use a smartphone or tablet independently by providing cost-effective and high quality assistive devices.
