(otherwise known as hate names terrible at decision)

VERY pastel n rainbow overload >:)

they level 3 autistic (“requiring very substantial support”) with high support needs—meaning they cannot independently do most adaptive functioning skills, needing other people physical help to do/do for them. they also need 24/7 supervision & physical help for all iADLs & bADLs.

they nonverbal & use AAC full time. their AAC is symbol based speech generating device.

their (most likely [<haven’t decided] partner who act as their) disability caretaker is hyacinthos shinya🪻🌌.

they also full time non-ambulatory wheelchair user with very specific posture & seating positioning needs so not out of it for long or really much at all.

angel wing on back of wheelchair is power assist! is magically powered by hyacinthos (who angel) & can be powered even remotely / far away. way control wheelchair & power assist part by intuitive / hand motions & gestures / etc, part by halo hover above armrest that act as joystick. can use it like traditional joystick or wear as bracelet n control that way! (gimme it i want one) (if you recognize this setting it may be because previous version)

they do mix of self propel, power assist, & caregiver push. their wheelchair have stroller style push handle instead traditional push handle for easier caregiver push, especially one handed.

is set in magical world & they do some magic (< haven’t decided]!

character not slug obsessed, artist the slug obsessed one

character sheet below cut!!

artfight character profile (VERY wip)

please do feel free draw them (with credit) n tag me!!!!!!

reblog welcome but please don’t repost

will fight you if debate about autism levels & support needs

.

hi under cut

[character sheet. functionally described below]

top left is full character clothing (with wheelchair translucent in background) because in original there some key parts blocked by wheelchair especially arm rest.

skirt around waist have purple band with blue small ruffles. center have rainbow bow with rainbow star on top.

n also have front n back of AAC device. what drawn here is 5x7 grid with various colored squares showing different parts of speech but grid size more so because like. is how much could fit comfortably. so even when redraw n isn’t exact 5x7 with colors exactly right where is right now, is okay. colors & where they are based on own AAC device >:) because of course

design of aac device case basically same as above. back side just have bigger clouds. oh also device has handles. tho it float around so handles get used less. float around so don’t have worry about how to carry it how to mount on wheelchair etc etc etc it follows you it automatic come to your hand when you wanna say something (kinda also acting as prompting bc sometimes think about say something but don’t actually say in device) it get out way when you don’t want it. if only like this irl lol

bottom left is info about character already said

bottom right is wheelchair design

parts covered up by person: rainbow gradient side guard, blue contoured cushion.

n also drawing of back of backrest: when not in use, wings power assist shrink to small decoration on back. not big there all time.

also have stickers! sticker of nessie, banana slug, sheep, cloud, star, rainbow, & an AAC symbol of “AAC”

wheelchair may also have magical tilt & recline & elevate. how? don’t know!!! why not just make full powerchair? uhhhh like manual chair look better

n picture of irl windmill candy

border of art also rainbow gradient lace.

yea that all please draw them 🥲

praise me put lots work into them

pls be nice to them

useful information: How to get a USB Blu-Ray player to work on your computer

Not a post about vintage technology, just an explanation of what you think might be simple to do but isn't: There are Blu-Ray players that plug into your computer by USB, and you discover that just plugging it in doesn't make it work* in the same manner that CD-RWs or DVD-RWs are automatically recognised and function. You will see "BR Drive" in My Computer and the name of whatever movie you have inserted, but that's as far as you're able to go.

*There is software you can buy to make a Blu-Ray (internal or external) function, sure, and if an internal came with your computer it's likely already installed -- but if you're like me you don't have that software, you're cheap and won't pay for software, and you want to use what you have installed already or find free solutions.

Looking in the Blu-Ray drive's package, there's not a lot of info about what you're supposed to do. The above no-name Blu-Ray player cost $40 from a popular website; name-brand ones can set you back $120 or so. Looking around online for those instructions, I never saw the whole set of directions in one place, I had to cobble them together from 2 or 3 sites. And so here I share that list. To keep out of trouble, I'm not linking any files -- Google will help you.

Get VLC, the free video player available for pretty much any operating system. Thing is, it doesn't come with the internals to make it work with Blu-Ray even if when you go to the Play Media menu there is a radio button for selecting Blu-Ray.

Get MakeMKV, a decoder for reading Blu-Ray disks. This had been totally free during the beta testing period but it's come out and has a month or two trial period you can work in.

Get Java if you don't already have it. Reason for this is, the menu systems on Blu-Ray disks uses this... technically it's not required, however it does mean you don't have options such as special features, language and sound changes, or scene selection if you don't have Java installed; insert a disk, it can only play the movie.

Get the file libaacs.dll online so you have AACS decoding. I am told it hasn't been updated in awhile so there may be disks produced after 2013 that won't work right, but you won't know until you try.

There's a set of keys you will also want to have so that the player knows how to work with specific disks, and so do a search online for the "FindVUK Online Database". There will be a regularly-updated keydb.cfg archive file on that page to pick up.

Got those three programs installed and the other two files obtained? Okay, here are your instructions for assembly...

In VLC: go to Tools, Prefs, click "show all"… under the Input/Codecs heading is Access Modules then Blu-Ray: Select your region, A through C. You can change this if you need to for foreign disks. Next related action: go to My Computer and C:, click into Program Files and VLC, and this is where you copy the libaacs.dll file to.

In MakeMKV: click View, then Preferences, and under Integration - add VLC.

Confirm that Java is set up to work with VLC by going to the computer's Control Panel, going to System Properties, and into Environment Variables. Click System Variables, and click New to create this key if it doesn't already exist: … Name: Java … Value: [the location of the Java 'jre#.##' folder... use Browse to find it in C:\Program Files\Java]

Let's go back into My Computer and C:, this time go to Program Data, and then do a right-click in the window and select New and Folder. Rename this folder "aacs" (without the quotes), and then you click into it and copy the keydb.cfg file here.

REBOOT.

And now you should be able to recognise Blu-Ray disks in your player and play them. Three troubleshooting notes to offer in VLC:

"Disk corrupt" -- this means MakeMKV has not decoded and parsed the disk yet, or that you don't have the libaacs.dll in place so that it can decode the disk. ...After checking the VLC folder for the DLL to make sure, launch MakeMKV, then go to File, Play Disk, and select the Blu-Ray drive. Now it will grind a bit and figure out the disk's contents.

A note appears when a movie starts saying there will be no menus, but the movie plays fine -- Java isn't running. ...Invoke Java by going to the Java Settings in Start: Programs. You don't have to change anything here, so Exit, then eject the disk and put it back in to see if the movie's menu now appears.

Buffering between chapters, making the movie pause for a few seconds? There is a setting for this but I need to find that info page again for where that is. (If you find it, tell me where it is!)

I don't claim to know a lot but if you have any questions I might have some answers or suggestions. So far I've watched "Office Space" and Disney's "Coco" without any issues beside occasional buffering.

That's right kids! Always be true to yourself - unless your true self is considered a "disorder."

[Image description: A 4 panel cartoon by Autball.

1: A happy flappy character (orange to red gradient) with the words “Just Be You" arcing above them, on a faded red background with a dark red frame.

2: Many child-sized figures, of various rainbow colors, sitting on bleachers. A blue adult figure stands in front of them saying, “Remember kids: Just be YOU. You are all wonderfully unique, and your true friends will accept you for who you are.”

3: The same adult figure stands in front of a different section of the bleachers with eight neurodivergent children of various colors sitting together. One has an AAC device, another is in a wheelchair. The adult points to them and says, “…except for you guys. We’re actually gonna need you to NOT be yourselves as much as possible if you wanna be accepted."

4: Close up of blue adult figure who says, “Don’t worry. We have lots of ways to help you with that!” He holds up a list that reads: Intervention Plan; ABA; PBS; Social Skills Group; Whole Body Listening: Clip Charts: Points Systems; Behavior Goals.]

I would LOVE to hear your feelings about Captain Pike from Star Trek (re: your tags)! I have a lot of feelings on the way his disability is handled, and unfortunately, those feelings are mostly disappointment and frustration.

OH BOY DO YOU HAVE TWO HOURS?? Really, do you?? Because along with two of my friends, I did two presentations at Trek Long Island on disability representation in Star Trek (one on disability in general, and one specifically on eugenics and neurodiversity), and Pike's arc came up, uh... a lot! With questions like "Why do we not have decent AAC by now?" and "Why was this particular plotline brought back as the tentpole for the franchise revival instead of being left in the problematic '60s like Turnabout Intruder?"

I actually have way more thought than fit into these videos, but I will avoid spamming you all at once or writing a novel... for now.

Do you happen to have a compilation of queercoded Alan Scott panels from before Flashpoint by any chance? It's really interesting to know how even as far back as the Golden Age the seeds for his sexuality were there and nobody really noticed

i do! kind of! i have a bunch spread across various post so i'm just gonna put together a compilation of gaycoded alan scott moments from the golden age (and beyond) for you right now :)

in his 1940s stories alan not only shows a complete disinterest in women but he actively rejects their advances at every turn

(in green lantern 1941 #34 he refuses to go on a date by pretending his dog dislikes girls)

(in green lantern #33 he reacts with disgust to the idea of marrying a woman)

(in all-american comics 1939 #71, alan's completely immune to a mad scientist's daughter that's been specifically created to be irresistible to men)

(in green lantern #13 doiby falls for a debutante that only has eyes for alan, and alan can't stand her or any affection from her)

much of his gaycoding also revolves around the close and intimate relationship he has with his best friend doiby dickles, whom he shares a bedroom & a bathroom with

(an especially flagrant example from all american comics #60 but keep in mind this is the status quo for all their golden age appearances after doiby finds out alan's identity in aac #35)

(a couple other examples of such intimacy from gl #28, aac #54, the big all-american comic book 1944 #1, and gl #34)

there's also a story in comic cavalcade 1942 that implies a great deal about alan's relationship with a nightclub owner named jonah dayton, which stands out in stark contrast to alan's distinct lack of romantic & social life

(comic cavalcade #23, note doiby's strange insistence that alan is 'ruining his life')

these are all just examples because it'd be impossible to show you panels from all his 130+ golden age appearances but if you were to read them in full you'd discover that over the course of his 1940s stories alan has no romantic relationships whatsoever and he and doiby live together, go on vacations together, adopt a dog together, babysit doiby's nephew together, and generally share a closeness that is 'inexplicable' even for the comics of back then. notably, alan's first silver age appearance in green lantern 1960 #40 has alan & doiby still living together and alan's employees at gbc calling him alan's 'man friday'

the 1976 run of all-star comics (which picks up the golden age series' numbering) goes so explicit with the confirmed bachelor aspect that it's undoubtedly what led to roy thomas' subsequent retcons in infinity inc (and specifically infinity inc annual #1)

(missing doiby in all-star comics #60, after doiby's subsequent marriage in the silver age gl series)

(writer paul levitz' retrospective on asc 1976 in the amazing world of dc comics #16, note how alan's the one jsaer to have never married and who has no family besides his close friend doiby)

it's within this context of alan's history that roy thomas' attempts to make him seem straight in infinity inc must be approached and how the confirmation of alan's sexuality in the present day is just that -- a confirmation, a return to form -- and not a retcon, after all for forty-one years of his existence there had been no women in alan's life.

this isn't to say though that with molly in the picture the gaycoding ever actually stopped, it just became rarer as any focus on alan himself or his personal life became rarer and the jsa-as-people (rather than heroes) sort of faded into the background. we still got the occasional gems like everything during the sentinel era (special shout out to the book of fate 1997 and the weird psychosexual things contained within) and how showcase '95 #1 has alan fighting the maybe-ghosts of his teammates while saying they have no right to judge him after they accuse him of not being 'a real man'

or green lantern: in brightest day, blackest night 2002 stating he'll never be able to settle down into a normal life because he's not a 'normal man'

and there's a lot to be read into molly's effective disappearance over the years, too. she's been pretty much erased post-early 2000s to the point that you could easily pinpoint their separation/divorce somewhere around 2007 or so.

there's certainly much more out there and having read all his appearances i've found next to none that didn't feature some hint of gaycoding but i hope you've enjoyed these examples! lmk your thoughts if you'd like :)

[anna-neko]

so yes... dolls!

during AAC few days ago got to help out a friend with a bjd/dolls panel! We had plenty of images in the PowerPoint, but sometimes a banana for scale just ain't enuff..... we brought lots of dolls to display as well!

hers were: Isabelle (milk Mirai SmartDoll), Rita (tinyFox) and uhh... obitsu boy something something

yoSD sized original artist doll and teeny tiny redhead cannot even remember the make of right now are hers

Rin minifee and Haru LaTi doll are mine. Plus an assortment of props to show all the accessories one can find out in the wild

Plus of course Utena & Anthy (Ohtori uniform made by a long-time cosplay friend), and Mari (Umineko Maria)

..................and you'd think people would know NOT to touch, but literally the first dude in the room brushed Haru's face with his hands

[bestworstcase]

seeing a lot of “always morally okay to pirate from shit corporations!” and zero instructions for how to do that besides watching in 270p on miserable ad-infested laggy streaming sites.

it sure would be a shame if there were better ways, wouldn’t it?

windows users everything described below should also work for you, just change filepath syntax as needed [ ~/some_folder -> C:\Users\you\some_folder ].

WHAT YOU’LL NEED:

basic internet privacy setup. VPN tracker blocking etc.

firefox [or any browser, but really. switch to firefox.]

ffmpeg

https://ffmpeg.org

homebrew users: brew install ffmpeg

JDownloader

https://jdownloader.org

we’re also going to use the command line interface for the final step, so if you don’t know what that is or have never used the CLI before, you’ll want to do a quick search for “open command prompt” (windows) or “open terminal” (macos/linux) and then practice using the cd command to move around between folders. we’re not doing anything complex or risky with the CLI, so don’t let this part intimidate you—really. it’s super simple.

if ffmpeg isn’t already installed on your machine, the JDownloader installer package should prompt you to install it automatically—say YES if it asks.

NB: this method will not allow you to download first exclusive content, but it’s very simple to work around this limitation using burner accounts and the 7-day free trial to access paywalled content. just be sure to cancel your “subscription” once you’re done

NB2: you’ll need to WHITELIST “Brightcove Player” in your tracker blocking. that’s the service responsible for hosting/streaming videos, we need it to load so that we can yank the links :)

STEP ONE: JDOWNLOADER CONFIG

launch JDownloader and go to Settings. set the directory you want it to send downloaded files to. mine is ~/Downloads/JDownloader/RT.

set “If the file already exists” to “Overwrite.” this will make downloading many videos at a time more streamlined.

set “Remove finished downloads” to “when package is ready.” this will automatically clear finished downloads from the Downloads panel, to keep the UI clean while you work.

leave JDownloader running so the link grabber can do its thing.

STEP TWO: FINDING THE LINKS

log in to your RT account and go to the first video you want to download. open the page inspector by pressing alt+ctrl+i, then enter the “Network” tab. at the top of this tab you’ll see a “Filter URLs” text field; type m3u8 into it.

IF YOU DON’T SEE ANY RESULTS: 1. confirm that Brightcove Player is whitelisted, and 2. refresh the page without closing the Inspector.

we are looking for links from the manifest.prod.dns domain beginning with master.m3u8 and rendition.m3u8. there should be one master link and 2-4 rendition links. copy the urls for ALL of them, allowing JDownloader to grab them from your clipboard. if JDownloader doesn’t grab them automatically, you can manually paste them into the LinkGrabber tab by clicking “Add New Link.”

STEP THREE: DOWNLOADING VID AND AUDIO FILE

back to JDownloader: in the LinkGrabber tab, you should see something like:

NB: the 193kbits audio is only available for first accounts—so if you want the higher quality audio you’ll need a burner account :)

anyway, what we want to do now is select the highest available video and audio folders—1080p and aac 193kbits in this case—right click, and select “Start Downloads.” JDownloader will download them to the default directory specified in step one, like so:

-RT --rendition (1080p) .|....rendition (1080p).mp4 --rendition (aac 193kbits) .|....rendition (aac 193kbits).m4a

STEP FOUR: PUTTING IT TOGETHER

what we’ve just downloaded is a video file with no sound and the audio track that goes with it, so what we need to do now is combine them into a single file. to do that, we’re going to execute an ffmpeg command using our CLI.

open terminal [or command prompt] and cd into your JDownloader default directory. for me, this is:

cd ~/Downloads/JDownloader/RT

if there are any spaces in your file path, enclose them with straight double quotes, like this: ~/Downloads/"Some Folder"/RT

the syntax for the ffmpeg command we need is:

ffmpeg -i <path to video>.mp4 -i <path to audio>.m4a -acodec copy -vcodec copy <outputfilename>.mp4

for example:

ffmpeg -i ./"rendition (1080p)"/"rendition (1080p).mp4" -i ./"rendition (aac 193kbits)"/"rendition (aac 193kbits).m4a" -acodec copy -vcodec copy 1.16_BlackAndWhite.mp4

if you’re on macos or linux, you can just copy that string, change the output filename, and paste directly into your terminal. windows users will need to change the path syntax also. hit enter to execute the command. if there are any errors they will be printed in the CLI—you’ll want to keep an eye on the path and file names for the audio files, they sometimes vary a little from video to video (192kbits vs 193kbits, or 65 vs 63).

the new, combined file will be created in whatever directory you run the command from. play it in your media player of choice to confirm that everything worked / that the audio track is correct, and you’re done.

FURTHER NOTES:

if you want to download a bunch of videos all at once, the most efficient way to do so is to grab the m3u8 links, download [allowing JDownloader to overwrite], run the ffmpeg command to combine, repeat. otherwise you can manually rename each set of files in JDownloader before initiating the download, then batch create all the combined files at once, but this is probably more of a hassle than it’s worth.

when downloading multiple videos, if you navigate from one to the next using the “Up Next” menu, make sure to MANUALLY REFRESH THE PAGE every time you load a new video, to ensure you are only seeing m3u8 links associated with that specific video. [they don’t get unloaded when you move on to the next video, only when the page itself is reloaded.]

Can you tell us a little more about Ten?

Absolutely! Thanks for the ask! Here's ten things about Ten, plus two picrews and one comics panel. Look at my boy <333

Spoilers for The Strange Redemption of Thaddeus Thawne below:

Ten is the Inertia from Flash: Fastest Man Alive. He killed Bart Allen. Then Wally West came after him and turned him into a living statue. Ten spent years in the Flash Museum, able to think at real time but not to move.

To survive the isolation, his brain basically shut down. When he's rescued, he has a laundry list of unfortunate side effects. He can't speak anymore. He has paranoia. It's hard to reach him with language, especially at first. His physical coordination is a shot for a while, although he does start to recover that. He needs a significant amount of support in daily life.

Physically, he's 19 years old. Chronologically, he's 27.

It's another clone who frees him from the immobilization. I'm not saying who or how yet, though—that's secret! ;)

He ends up living with Joseph Wilson and Two. He sleeps in the computer lab upstairs, the one known as the "Green Room". (Two gets the Blue Room!)

Ten uses an AAC app to communicate. He writes and texts sometimes, but mostly uses the preprogrammed phrase boards and vocabulary from the app. Three was delighted by Ten's phone and stuck a bunch of stickers on it without asking (THREE HONEY NO...). Ten didn't mind, but he meticulously removed all the stickers except the blue ones.

Ten's favorite color is blue. This is one of the first things that they learn about his personality.

Ten listens to a lot of rock music! His headphones are his favorite possession. He also really likes listening to people talk to him, as long as they're talking to him and not just around him. He has issues with being ignored, understandably enough (had to watch people in the museum). He also hates silence (all those long nights...)

When Ten is upset, he often goes to the back yard and gets fabulously dirty. The sensory input helps remind him that he's real.

I almost forgot—he learns to quilt! Ten will easily spend hours and hours quilting. He likes the mathematical challenge of it, the arranging of patterns, the planning and the execution of the plan. He's smart and strong, and quilting is a good brain workout that also gets his body moving.

He's my boy and I love him <333

Revolutionizing Construction. The Role of AAC Block Manufacturing Machines

The construction industry has been steadily moving towards more sustainable and efficient building materials in response to global environmental concerns and rising energy costs. One of the innovations leading this change is Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (AAC) blocks. AAC blocks are favored for their lightweight, thermal insulation, and fire resistance properties. At the heart of the production of these revolutionary building materials are AAC block manufacturing machines, which play a pivotal role in shaping modern construction landscapes.

Understanding AAC Block Manufacturing Machines

AAC block manufacturing machines are the backbone of AAC block production plants. These machines handle everything from the raw material mixture to the output of cured blocks. An AAC block production line includes several key components:

Batching and Mixing Unit: This is where raw materials like cement, lime, sand, gypsum, and aluminum powder are accurately measured and mixed into a slurry.

Pouring and Pre-curing: The mixed slurry is then poured into molds. These molds are transferred to a pre-curing area where the mix sets slightly, forming a solid but still soft block.

Cutting Line: After pre-curing, the solidified block is cut into precisely measured blocks or panels using high-tensile strength wires.

Autoclaving: The cut blocks are then subjected to high-pressure steam curing in autoclaves, which gives AAC blocks their strength and lightweight properties.

Packing and Storage: Finally, the blocks are packaged and moved to storage areas from where they can be distributed.

The Impact of Technology on AAC Block Manufacturing

The evolution of technology in manufacturing AAC blocks has significantly impacted the construction industry. Modern AAC block machines incorporate advanced features like automated control systems which ensure precision and efficiency at every stage of the production process. These advancements not only increase the output but also enhance the quality of the blocks.

Automation

Automation in AAC block manufacturing includes computerized batch process controls, automated mixing, and accurate wire cutting systems, which reduce human error and enhance the uniformity of the product. This automation extends to the autoclaving process, ensuring that each block is cured under optimal conditions for consistent quality.

Quality Control

Today’s AAC block manufacturing machines come equipped with integrated quality control systems. These systems monitor each phase of the production process, from raw material mixing ratios to final block density, ensuring that each product meets stringent standards.

The Advantages of AAC Blocks

AAC blocks offer a multitude of benefits that make them a superior choice in modern construction:

Lightweight: AAC blocks are about one-fifth the weight of traditional concrete, which reduces the load on the structure and allows for faster construction.

Insulation Properties: The excellent thermal insulation properties of AAC blocks mean better energy efficiency, reducing heating and cooling costs in buildings.

Fire Resistance: AAC blocks are fire-resistant, making them a safe building material.

Environmentally Friendly: The production process of AAC blocks uses less energy and generates fewer emissions than traditional brick manufacturing. Additionally, AAC blocks are made from non-toxic materials and are completely recyclable.

Challenges in AAC Block Manufacturing

While AAC block manufacturing machines have streamlined production, there are still challenges that need addressing:

High Initial Investment: The setup cost for an AAC block plant is significant, primarily due to the sophisticated and expensive machinery required.

Technical Expertise: Operating an AAC block plant requires skilled personnel trained in handling complex machinery and understanding the technical nuances of AAC production.

Market Penetration: Despite their advantages, AAC blocks are still relatively new in some markets compared to traditional building materials like clay bricks and concrete blocks. Increasing market penetration requires extensive marketing and education efforts to build trust and acceptance among builders and consumers.

Future Prospects

The future of AAC block manufacturing looks promising with continuous advancements in machine technology and growing awareness of sustainable construction practices. Innovations like enhanced automation, better energy management systems, and the use of artificial intelligence for predictive maintenance and process optimization are expected to further improve the efficiency and environmental footprint of AAC block production.

Conclusion

AAC block manufacturing machines are more than just equipment; they are the drivers of change in the construction industry, pushing it towards more sustainable and efficient practices. As the demand for greener building solutions increases globally, the importance of advanced AAC block manufacturing technology will continue to grow, playing a crucial role in the global movement towards sustainable development. The industry is set for further growth and innovation, making AAC blocks a key component of future constructions, aligning with global goals for energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact.

1: Two adults, one purple and one green, sit across from each other at a table and chairs in primary colors that are a bit too small for them. Purple says, “So, we’ve given it a lot of time, but speech just doesn’t seem to be coming for her. Meanwhile, I feel like a lot of her frustration comes from not being able to tell us things, so I really wanna focus on finding a better way for her to communicate with us.”

2: Same scene. Green says, “Well then you’re in the right place! We’ll do everything we can to get her communicating more effectively.”

3: Close up of Purple and Green, having a series of quick exchanges.

Purple: Great! We’ve already been trying out some signs…

Green: Oh no, that’ll discourage speech.

Purple: and I’m wondering if an AAC device might work for her…

Green: No, she’s not ready for that.

Purple: and I’ve also heard good things about Spelling to Communicate.

Green: Ha! No, that’s fake.

4: Original scene. Purple says, “So when you said you’d do everything you can…” Green replies, “Yeah, I meant speech. Just speech. Maybe some PECS along the way, but that’s just to get to speech.”]

AAC Plant Manufacturers in India: Leading the Way in Sustainable Construction

In recent years, sustainable construction practices have gained significant traction worldwide, and India is no exception. One of the key players driving this movement is the AAC (Autoclaved Aerated Concrete) industry, with several AAC plant manufacturers leading the way in India. With a density above 4%, the keyword "AAC Plant Manufacturers in India" reflects the importance and prominence of these manufacturers in the country's construction landscape.

AAC, also known as cellular concrete, is a lightweight, energy-efficient, and environmentally friendly building material. It is made from a blend of cement, lime, water, and finely ground sand or fly ash.

3d Printing and Mobility Aids

Frequently do not qualify for grants/funding/insurance (which does make it a good option if needing things that wouldn’t/can’t be covered anyways).

*Most of these can be used with/adapted for other mobility aids than shown.

*This is a selection of what is possible and is very much not an exhaustive list.

Levers

Most common modification I see for 3d printed wheelchair modifications.

Makes it so that propulsion is via a “rowing” action instead of a “pushing” action, which then changes the stress on the body.

May be a suitable replacement for power assist depending on the reason for needing the assist.

Clips

It is possible to make clips to attach pretty much anything to a wheelchair but commonly seen ones are for bags, canes, and umbrellas.

Holders

This would be things like phone holders, cup holders, aac device holders, oxygen tank holders, misc item holders/”pockets”, etc.

Some screw directly into the existing hardware on the wheelchair and may require some extra ability to be able to install.
