We are delighted to present our latest explainer animation: Enabling Technologies. The new animation represents a core branch of MedTechVic's new research hub focused on inclusive medial innovation.
Unlike traditional research hubs – where end-users can sometimes be an afterthought – in this first-of-its-kind initiative, MedTechVic embraces human-centred design to place people at the heart of their research and development activities. They’ll work closely with both industry and the broader community to ideate and co-create innovative tailor-made medical and assistive devices.
About Enabling Technologies
The Enabling Technologies platform is one of the initiative’s core components that connect people with disability with researchers, engineers, designers, clinicians and carers to develop advanced technology solutions that are manufacturable, support local supply chains, and most importantly, “help people live their lives – their way!”

An inclusive animation for an inclusive initiative
It wouldn’t be a great look to create any kind of communications explaining inclusive and enabling technologies, without considering accessibility! Of course, accessibility should always be a key consideration when creating any kind of content. However, we can run into hurdles when trying to balance accessibility with branding requirements.
We worked very closely with Swinburne to adapt their branding and colour palettes into illustrations that can be enjoyed by all – regardless of their level of ability – whilst remaining “on brand.”
