The market for products that make it easier for people with limited mobility and muscle control to perform everyday tasks will continue to grow as the population age. Here’s a video demonstration of an invention called TeePer:

More about the product:

Finally a Toilet Paper Dispenser Deluxe Makeover! It’s hygienic, economical, convenient, ADA/Elderly-friendly and state of the art.

This gadget pre-folds and cuts metered (adjustable) lengths of toilet paper with a wave of a hand on the unit. (Update: this same prototype has been successfully tested with an infrared sensor for a touch-free operation)

Say goodbye to all the nuisances of the TP dispenser of today. No more fumbling to replace a tissue roll, no more premature tissue break-off, no more unsightly tissue hanging off the roll onto the floor, no more messy floors from scraps of tissues and no more clog-ups due to excessive toilet paper use.

It would bring a breath of fresh air (no pun intended) to folks who suffer from the effects of a stroke, arthritis, MS, Parkinson’s disease, paralysis or amputees who must have challenges preparing their own toilet paper. Then of course it maybe something the average person would wish for as well whether due to the practical reasons cited above or for the simple notion that owning something as cool would set them apart from the rest.

This patent-pending innovation is available for licensing or other business proposals.

Comments/feedbacks are highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

I can’t find a website or contact information, but if you’re interested, you can contact the person who published the video here.
