Meet Obi
Obi is a first of its kind, revolutionary dining device for individuals who lack upper extremity function. Obi increases independence, social interaction, and effective food capture like never before.
With the momentary touch of a switch, Obi allows users to select between four compartments of food and command when the food is captured and delivered to the mouth.

Diner Spotlight: Kevin
“I love Obi because it gives me a sense of independence and freedom to have choices about what I eat throughout the day, when I eat throughout the day, and just really allows me to have energy throughout my day so that I can do my job and be productive. So it’s changed my life!”
Innovative Features
EFFECTIVE FOOD CAPTURE
Automated multi-directional food capture, portion control, spoon wiping, and food re-positioning keep food transfer efficient.
SMOOTH MOVES
Graceful, life-like motions, smoother than a human arm, avoid unwanted drips and splashes.
HAND-GUIDED TEACH MODE
Quickly and intuitively select a food delivery location from thousands of possibilities within a large volume of space.
PERSONABLE CHARACTER
Six Degrees of Freedom (motors) enable intuitive, animated gestures.
SIMPLE & INTUITIVE DINER CONTROLS
At the click of a switch, the diner initiates the bowl selection command or food delivery command.
Switch Operation
Obi is controlled by any part of the body that can activate a switch. Obi is compatible with any switch that utilizes a 3.5mm headphone jack adapter.
