Hands-Free Dooknob/Tap Design

The attached design is intended for use on door-knobs and spherical or cylindrical tap heads of 50- 74mm diameter (standard door-knob sizes range from 60.3mm to 69.9mm). This is demonstrated in the attached renders and below. This design was created as there seem to be a wide range of solutions in place (or even proposed in the competition already) for modern cylindrical door handles and slightly more modern tap designs. This design aims to provide a solution for 'traditional' door-knob and tap designs while maintaining usability for both able bodied and disabled, less-than-able and elderly demographics.
