First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This completed Phase 2 trial tested a smart, hands-free faucet called Access-H2O for people with spinal cord injury. The faucet uses voice, motion, and remote controls to let users get water for drinking, grooming, and washing without help. Twenty-three participants with spinal cord injury tested the device in clinics and at home to see if they could complete these tasks on their own.

If successful, this smart faucet could help people with spinal cord injury drink and groom on their own, improving daily independence and quality of life.
What could go wrong
