Mileha Soneji is an Indian girl who's oncle got diagonsticated with Parkinson, he's oncle was a very active person and was allways the focus of all the looks, but since he started to find the tremble in he's body he started to become shy, he even stoped drinking coffee in public because of embarassing.
Mileha Soneji tried to help him on what she could, so she designed a cup of coffee special for parkinson patients, but the key was that it did not look like a special coffee cup for people with problems, it looked so normal, but the top of the cup was little bit closed to prevent the coffee to spill out of the cup.
She decided to go beyond and she looked at the quotidian life of the oncle to get ideas on some inventions that could make he's life easier. What she found is that he could go up and down stairs without the walker thanks to the constant move that climbing stairs requires. So she designed a printed optical ilusion in the floor to make it easier to walk to he's oncle, and it worked.
The conclusion is that we don't allways need advanced technology to find solutions to huge problems like the capacity of that man to walk, sometimes we just need a bit of human thinking and most of the problems can get solved easily.
