Now THIS is what TED stands for imo
+Yusuf A no way, she is giving medical advice as a designer. All her information is wrong and backed up only by her anecdotal claims. This is what TED shouldn't be about.
zmacy She is giving simple solutions to very common problems through simple innovation. How can you be more TED?
Thanks Yusuf...that was clearly my idea....and you understood it spot on...
That staircase idea was so cool. Who knew that something so simple could help so much!
+walkingparadox10 Shocked me too!
+walkingparadox10 thought it was a joke at first ^^
Thanks
The staircase illusion is both a simple and advanced concept that is bound to greatly help many sufferers of Parkinson's with mobility.
Wouldn't it be great if based on this notion, there should be made transparent glasses that would enable the person's brain to receive the motion ilusion without changing it its environment to much! Like changing the structure of the glass so that the brain perceives it as "staircase" ilusion. Could that eradicate tremor in everyday life?
Shout out to this beautiful, inspiring & informative ted talk and the brave young woman.
I liked it when she said " fail if needed"
sometimes you will need to fail in order to win
Yes definitely...failure should not stop one from trying. Thanks :)
A person fails when they stop trying.
I wish I could buy these for my husband! Thank her for her good and kind work.
Mileha Soneji - This is FANTASTIC! Thank you for your brilliance and great Ted Talk...sorry I am just seeing this now!
As humans, we tend to over think things! That was simple!
Thanks.....definitely we do overthink.....but having said that simple is not always easy :)
Making such a big impact in just under 7 minutes. Well done.
Thanks robert....
The moment I saw him walking over the print, i cried
My father has Parkinson's. Thank you for a very pragmatic and inspiring talk on this disease.
Wow, truly astonishing. Wonderful lady.
Thanks dee clark for your kind words
Maybe there's people who doesn't want to smoke marijuana to solve a health issue. This fact doesn't change the fact that what she said in this talk is truly astonishing and interesting, and she found a very clever solution to help a loved one and many other people :)
It was wonderful watching you. I could relate the problems because my father suffers from the same. For his tremors, he finds it difficult to drink water like your uncle does for "coffee".I solved his problem by adding a straw to the glass of water and trust me, it did wonders! Simple hacks for Parkinson's is what makes their life simpler and alike the normals. Thank you for your inspiring video!
The staircase illusion is such a simple solution to helping those suffering with Parkinson's deal with mobility issues within their own homes. Next step is adapting this to outside use, maybe in the form of eyewear that superimposes the illusion on everyday outdoor flat surfaces.
Low-tech smart is always more interesting than high-tech smart.
agreed
+derty qwerty 42N I agree with you and I don't like to nitpick but in medicine words are very important. It doesn't "cure" Parkinson's although there is some research that shows it can delay onset, and alleviate symptoms.
I know this is an ad hominen attack but using phrases like "science proven studied fact" makes it seem like you have no idea what you're talking about and can undermine your point.
Thanks a lot tom for your kind words
This should be a must watch for all design students.
Thanks...I can't believe that when I designed this I myself was a student and now this is inspiration for them...So honoured :)
very amazing! I'm a nurse, and I'll definitely advice to my pt's family
The stairs idea is brilliant!
Thanks Joan
simply amazing.
This is beautiful. Hopefully satisfaction from acts of love and empathy will compare favourable with 'huge financial reward' as MOTIVATION. She calls for a change in attitude.
Really interesting, both sides of my family have/had Parkinson's, and it's something that's not made as aware as other diseases, really insightful and has got me thinking.. from speaking to those that are affected, they have said that just keeping busy and in motion really helps, and that staying still and giving in is the quickest way to it going downhill.
Simple yet completely amazing! Brilliant.
wonderful personality and a great presentation.
Amazing ideas and wonderful woman!
Thank you for this small, but very useful speech.
Simply Fantastic.
Wow the stairs !!!
great talk!
i love the relational aspect of her study, and the observational and listening attitude.
breathtaking creativity as well.
that silly stair print is fantastic!
Thanks weesh.... I definitely believe thats the attitude to have for being empathic
heh, i'd have guessed that it was the other way around...that being empathetic makes you a better listener and observer!
Remarkable! Thank you.
Your definitely a blessing and a heaven sent angel!!! Your contributions guarantee you a place at Gods table..... Thank You!! Jerry G.
This was just awesome.
awesome work.. ..Thinking Different isn't means that you have to do expensive.. new things.. u have to do LIKE THESE THINGS..
Wow! This is just brilliant!! Outstanding talk!!😃👍✨
so simple yet effective!
Great video. Human centred approaches are good and can be used in developing countries where we don't have a lot of technology other countries have.
❤ this is amazing! Yes simple solutions that are also affordable! I was looking for bath brushes and because it’s made for someone with Parkinson’s it doubles in price!
Thank you.
It is very excellent and educational...
Lucky Uncle to have such a brilliant and loving niece!
are you an OT? I'm just watching through some ted talks and its very much OT based! Very impressive
This is brilliant!
This is so neat and fun! Thank you!
Brilliant!
This is so awesome.
Where can i get one of that cup?
Great♥️♥️
I love it!
That was super cool.
wow !
great
I only have vision in one eye. Climbing stairs are a daily struggle. Printing optical illusions of stairs on the floor would be a cruel joke. Simple solutions to problems are always invited. However, simplistic ones can lead to further issues.
itsss awesome ,that a great hack
I actually think someone should put the staircase illusion into augmented reality glasses.
Mam your idea i osm..great job..super...loved it..and u r very cute
wow!!!
She's AWESOME :)
Where can we buy that cup?
Nice
BEST
May I call them 3d stairs wow the idea is amazing..:)
Love
What a wonderful girl.
Elder PWP sometimes have Stenosis of the neck - need a cup with cut out for nose: that is out there.
cool
Can the patient be provided with a pair of glasses that have stairs depicted below, allowing them to see stairs wherever they go?😂
Sorprendente. :D
wow i liked tht 😃
really how can u possible dislike the video ?
+Ankur.k B
When you are a SJW and you're angry that you're outperformed by a Hindu woman living in 3rd world India.
+TheAnnoyingGunner That describes a bigoted mysogonists inferiority complex.
What a clever girl you are
Beautiful too thank you
I'd quickly noticed that constant motion of my muscles limited tremors, but I didn't know it affected others who were far more afflicted, in such a strong way. I'll be sure to spread the word to those I meet struggling with it.
I do find it strange that this is a solution, the amount of money spent on carpets to allude to a non-flat ground. Surely it's just a matter of practice, even if that practice began with the same sort of illusion :)
For a way to use a cup to walk smoother and heel-to-toe, see

I could really use that cup.
wow youreSUPER!

Dear Ted, what if we use VR for parkinson people, and create a visual staircase, it's mean parkinson people can walk to everywhere?
Jk
4:56 Why are they laughing???? What's so funny????
hahahaha genius!!!
Amazing.
i thought this was an April Fool's joke at first.
Damn son
I will probably receive some negativity for this but: What's so new about this? Okay the cup is cool but the staircase thing has been well-known for years and is a part of standard physical therapy for parkinsons.
No negativity necessary, Dakan. Your question is very clear. TED likes simple ideas. Mileha Soneji reintroduces an old technique, and creates an alternative to the stairclimb-adding a simple touch for a TED talk.
First
finally not a SJW
What? O'really?
life is a trap
more TED talks like this please instead of those crap sjw "talks" if you could even call them that
PLEASE DO NOT FOLLOW HER ADVICE. I'm sorry but your information is wrong and dangerous if people try to duplicate it. You are reporting anecdotal evidence with no research supporting your claims. You are going to cause individuals with PD to risk serious falls. You really shouldn't be giving medical suggestions as a designer. I'm a dual doctorate student and musculoskeletal specialist. My mentor is battling advanced PD and I've worked with him for years. PD is neurodegenerative disease of biochemical origin that has to do with a deficiency of dopamine. Long story short, it leads to major motor deficits... often characterized by the festinating gait she is trying to "treat". This is caused by decreased muscle activation and hypertonic muscle tone. All stages of gait are changed. PD patients need strength training and Range of Motion activation...you shouldn't be tricking them to walk different, it's a protective mechanism! You're fooling him into thinking the terrain is different, you are not helping with anything related to the disease...All it will take is one moment of confusion and down he will go. Steps (when real) are easier because PD patients walk with a flat foot strike. (Tib Anterior (toe up) and Triceps Surae (heel strick) are both extremely deficient.) We all plant flat footed to climb in elevation. I can't believe this was a TED talk and so many people like it. Again, please do not follow her advice and try the staircase illusion.
zmacy, keep your double doctorate ego aside and observe your mentor with an open mind. My dad has Parkinson's and this exactly fits. Running, getting down stairs are continuous activities dictated by a different part of the brain. Normal walking is a completely different activity and leads to confusion, freezing and gait issues. The solution is not in the Gait and Ortho or musculoskeletal issues, it lies in perception of objects, balance and confidence to take the next step. You can help someone with PD only with empathy, not ego
A similar technique - patterning of the floor with dark tape - was taught to my father by an Occupational Therapist while my father was hospitalized with Parkinson’s. He also was able to dance a waltz, when music was provided. Yet he couldn’t walk to the bathroom across an unpatterned floor without aid. So your theory about the musculoskeletal system is off base.
"hacks"
Illuminati confirmed.
:( why they fake their emotions. It's looks like she don't care about her uncle. She more care about her ideas... . Or I'm wrong. But it's looks like how it's looks.
is this a joke xD
Life sucks.
+Dennis Christiani Only if you make is suck
Wow no dislikes. Guess it passed the SJW test.
Mileha, I really enjoyed your talk and have shared it with others who are caring for PD. Do you have a pattern that can be printed or taken to a printer. My wife could really benefit from this. Her freezing gait has gotten progressively worse. Thank you.
