Problem Statement
Although feeding device are available for people suffering from
paralysis, they are often bulky, expensive, and not portable. A need
exists for a simple feeding device. It should be electromechanical
and operate from its own power source. The design should be
economical, have a light weight, and be simple to use and maintain.
