WHAT IS OBI?
Obi is a revolutionary adaptive eating device for individuals with upper extremity strength and mobility limitations.
Through the use of customisable accessibility switches, Obi allows its users to be in control of what they eat and when in order to increase independence, social interaction, meal enjoyment, and wellbeing.
FOOD OPTIONS
Almost any food can work with Obi as long as it is prepared correctly!
Solid Foods
We recommend that solid foods be between the size of a pea and grape to ensure that Obi can properly pick the food up with the spoon. Larger solid foods should be cut to these sizes.
Sticky Foods
Sticky foods, such as mac & cheese or mashed potatoes may result in larger bites due to their consistency. You can add extra cream, butter, cheese or broth to make sure the food doesn’t clump together.
Liquid Foods
Liquid foods such as soup, stew, cereal, pudding, etc. all work well!
Our users have fun trying foods with Obi and are always impressed with what Obi can do!
