OTO the hugging chair

Designed for people with autism, usable by everyone.

OTO was designed in consultation with experts including patients with autism and since 2021 it is in use in EXAC-T the Center of Excellence on Autism and Neurodevelopmental Disorders in Tours, France. View our work : https://youtu.be/C1SRY0fDvZs?si=LOStdIunHtgcHIXw

This innovative chair has inflatable inner walls that apply deep pressure on the body thanks to the air pump. This pressure helps to reduce anxiety in people with sensory disorders, so they can feel calmer, more available and able to participate in learning social interaction.
