Condom Applicator Generation II 2007
|
||
| HIV infections have become a global concern, especially in Sub Sahara Africa. The condom applicator helps alleviate this pandemic by improving a universally accepted product, instead of introducing a new system into an already controversial environment. The idea of a condom applicator has been in the public domain for decades; however this second generation design provides a user friendly design which guarantees the easy and correct application of a condom onto a penis. Project research indicated that the incorrect application of a condom can lead to the potential spread of STD’s, or rupturing the condom with fingernails. The development path started in 2001 with the first generation model (outlined below). | ||
