Baby K's Dimensions

Baby K has special dimensions that were taken into consideration for the design. During a visit, we discovered that Baby K weighs 32 lbs. Due to her physical limitations and the shape of her body, it was difficult to acquire precise and accurate measurements of her individual body parts. The figures below illustrate the approximate measurements that were recorded:

Baby K's Home

The house dimensions were also included in the device specifications. The device will be used indoors and outdoors. Therefore, measurements were taken in many rooms of the house. The narrowest point of the house is the bathroom entrance. The turning radii of the hallway and the bathroom are also important. The clearance of the bathroom doorway, at 23 inches, dictated the width of the device and the turning radius determined the length. The device should easily clear all of these passageways.
