Dysphagia, caused by muscle weakening in aging populations, poses a critical health issue. It affects the ability to swallow food smoothly, leading to discomfort and potential life-threatening complications. SWALLOW aims to guide dysphagia patients in proper eating techniques through a device that transforms from a regular clock to a meal correction tool using visual and auditory cues. The goal of the projcet is to promote habit formation without physical intervention.
