Autism Sensory Reset Pod
Design and conceptualization of a sensory
reset pod to allow people living with Autism
to take time out in busy, hectic situations.
The pod allows the user to sit in an enclosed
space, and control light intensity, light
color, ventilation and temperature, and either
use relaxation audio. In the event that a user
in the OCD autism spectrum uses the pod, a 3mm
jack socket allows them to use their own
headphones, and provides sanitation alcohol
wipes to cleanse the wipe clean GRP and vinyl
surfaces. The unit has its own lighting, audio
and ventilation services under the seat,
accessible by a service panel on the rear. The
unit is mounted on 4 heavy duty castors to
allow the operator to move the unit from
varying locations. Power supply would either
be by fixed electricity hook up (e.g. in a
shopping mall) or via a generator for outdoor
festivals. The unit has been designed to fit
on a standard trailer capable of being towed
by any small vehicle upwards.
