The Second Annual Rehab-Lab Network day brought together organisations and professionals to share experiences, accredit new members and drive innovation in personalised assistive devices through 3D printing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Friday 3 July the Second Annual Rehab-Lab Network day<\/strong> took place, organised by the iSocial Foundation<\/strong> and aimed at promoting the autonomy of people with disabilities through the 3D printing of personalised assistive devices.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event brought together current members, organisations in the process of accreditation and interested professionals, and aimed to share the main results of the past twelve months and to exchange lessons learned and best practices among the Network’s member organisations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, the meeting served to accredit 14 new entities which, during this course, have completed the training in the Rehab-Lab model and now become part of the network: ATADI, Fundaci\u00f3 Hospital de Palam\u00f3s, Fundaci\u00f3 l’Espiga, Fundaci\u00f3 Pere Mitjans, Fundaci\u00f3 Privada AVAN, Fundaci\u00f3 Villablanca, Fundaci\u00f3n Valentia Huesca, Hospital de Tortosa Verge de la Cinta and TEB Barcelona, Esment and Fundaci\u00f3 Kapacita, Hospital Maternoinfantil Sant Joan de D\u00e9u Barcelona and the Fundaci\u00f3 Privada Nostra Senyora de Meritxell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the highlights of the day was the showroom, where member organisations displayed concrete examples of 3D support products related to mobility and transport, health and sport, music and leisure, nutrition, personal care and management, household tasks, and communication and socialisation. These rooms generated great interest among the participants, who were able to ask questions about the design, materials, complexity or finishing process of the aids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A round table discussion on the co-design process was also held, with the participation of Judit Conill, a therapist at MIFAS; Samuel Tovias, an engineering student at the Pere Mitjans Foundation; Armand Gouvy, a former patient at the Guttmann Institute; and Enric Cabello, a volunteer at Makers Lleida.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the event, the network’s new entities were introduced, and awards were presented in various categories for the technical aids designed by the entities, which had submitted their most successful products as candidates. The participants at the gathering voted live for the winners in each category.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The awards for the most outstanding functional aids developed by the Network’s FabLabs were:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
