    摘要: In an embodiment, a wearable device for vibratory stimulation is presented. The wearable device includes a sensor configured to receive data and generate sensor output. The wearable device includes a processor in communication with the sensor and a memory communicatively connected to the processor. The memory includes instructions configuring the processor to receive the sensor output from the sensor. The processor is configured to determine a symptom of a movement disorder of a user based on the sensor output. The processor is configured to calculate a waveform output based on the symptom of the movement disorder. The processor is configured to command a transducer in communication with the processor to apply the waveform output to the user to reduce the symptom of the movement disorder.

    摘要: A multimodal wearable band which uses mechanical vibrations to stimulate sensory neurons in the wrist or ankle in order to reduce the severity of tremors, rigidity, involuntary muscle contractions, and bradykinesia caused by neurological movement disorders and to free users from freezing induced by movement disorders. The device uses sensors to provide output used by a processing unit to determine the optimal stimulation pattern for each user and to determine when stimulation is necessary, and then uses one or more vibration motors to accordingly stimulate the user's neurological pathways to lessen the severity of a user's symptoms. The device can also be adapted to integrate with 3rd party devices.

    摘要: A multimodal wearable band uses mechanical vibrations to stimulate sensory neurons in the wrist or ankle to reduce the severity of tremors, rigidity, involuntary muscle contractions, and bradykinesia caused by neurological movement disorders and to free users from freezing induced by movement disorders. The device uses sensors to provide output used by a processing unit to determine a stimulation pattern for the user and to determine when stimulation is necessary, and then uses one or more transducers to correspondingly stimulate the user's neurological pathways to lessen the severity of the user's symptoms. The device can also be adapted to integrate with third party devices.
