Tremor Canceling Ring

grabcad

Featuring internal batteries, Linear Resonance Actuators, and an accelerometer, this ring-sized device detects and counters rhythmic forces in the arm, aiding patients in managing significantly decreased tremors. Worn on the pointer finger for easier activities like writing and touchscreen use, it can also be combined with a wrist version to assist at both finger and wrist levels. Inspired by noise-canceling headphones and pace detection apps, this device opposes tremor timing, direction, and frequency. It additionally tracks tremor occurrences and analyzes data while potentially reducing psychologically induced tremors due to reduced noticeability and easier management.
