The conceptual 'Pinsoft' injection accessory is a solution for healthcare professionals that would help the to administer inoculations or other kinds of medical shots for those who have a fear of them. The device works by implementing a series of round-tipped prongs that would be pressed against the skin to offer an experience that would mask the process of needle insertion. This would help those who deal with trypanophobia to work through their fear or injections by tricking the body into feeling a gentle massage-like experience rather than a single prick.
The conceptual 'Pinsoft' injection accessory is the design work of Sofía Aparicio Ródenas, Laura Martinavarro and Juan Carlos Espert, and is the winner of the James Dyson National Award in Spain.
