Exoskeleton Could Quell the Tremors of Parkinson's Disease Patients at Crucial Moments From: IEEE Spectrum - 06/29/2016 By: Eliza Strickland Parkinson's disease brings on the shakes, and these tremors often get worse as the disease progresses. To prevent this symptom from interfering with patients’ daily lives, researchers in London have devised a clever arm exoskeleton that recognizes actions that require fine motor control, like lifting a cup or pointing, and turns on to suppress the tremors at those crucial moments.
