Students from YongChun Senior High School thought of their relatives in southern Taiwan who face physical challenges caused by ageing and obtaining drinking water from local water station as they developed a plan for a smart water delivery trolley.
This empathy-based design was part of the second annual Made to Move Communities™ challenge, sponsored by Otis Worldwide Corporation (NYSE: OTIS), the world’s leading company for elevator and escalator manufacturing, installation and service.
Students from 20 schools across 14 countries and territories participated in the program, which, this year, focused on eliminating barriers to mobility for the rapidly growing 60+ population. They were supported by Otis volunteer mentors to develop innovative science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) solutions to real-world mobility challenges seen in their communities.
