Use creative solutions to provide convenience for blind/visually impaired people. They will not need to use a kettle to aim the cup to pour water, and do not worry about the water level being too high or causing the water to overflow the cup. The user only needs to place the specially designed cup in the designated position.

Problem-Blind people encounter a series of problems when using the kettle. Because they are insecure about changes in water level and target location, it is difficult for them to use the kettle to hold and pour water. In this project, our goal is to provide blind people with the best drinking experience so that they are no different from us when drinking water.

Solution-Instead of holding a heavy kettle to aim at a small target to pour water, inspired by the bar cup cleaner, our design is to let users fill water from under the cup. Press once for cold water twice for hot water. The water dispenser is designed to hold only 80% cups at a time so that there is no need to worry about overflow.

Replace the filter element-For the convenience of users, we have adopted a simpler way to replace the filter element, that is, by rotating the handle to lift it, we add a Braille label to the filter to make it easy for the blind to understand.
