A small machine that turns pages using an office rubber band

Sefi Udi, is an Industrial Designer and is also quadriplegic. He reached out to the TOM community to ask for help in developing a system that will allow him to turn pages in a book. Makers working with him offered to “hack” a kindle so the pages could turn with a blink of his eye, but we can all agree that reading from a kindle is not the same as reading from a book. The Accessi Book is a small machine that turns pages using an office rubber band wrapped around a wheel and a small holder that was 3D printed. This product costs less than $50 and can be self manufactured by any maker.

Collapsible text is perfect for longer content like paragraphs and descriptions. It’s a great way to give people more information while keeping your layout clean. Link your text to anything, including an external website or a different page. You can set your text box to expand and collapse when people click, so they can read more or less info.
