SWAROVSKI AXIS / Binoculars

Project Work in cooperation with SWAROVSKI
SWAROVSKI AXIS / Fernglas

The image stabilizing Swarovski Axis is intended for patients that experience tremors and Parkinson’s disease. Akin to the functionality of a gimbal (multi joint hinges), the image stabilization is achieved by pivoting points in both horizontal and vertical directions, aided by tension from an elastic band that can be attached to the body. The shell is reduced to the points of contact with the users´ hands, and can be individualized by interchangeable cushion pads. The sustainability of the concept results from the purely mechanical construction and the possibility to separate into individual parts after the product has reached the end of the lifecycle.
