Gloves trial

[Haddi]

Why did Pat only get 4 months instead of 6 ?youtu.be/A-ecXQoaykw(Not working as expected?)

I was surprised he has the gloves but is still searching for solutions. I was hoping the gloves WERE the solution (maybe they are).

[Haddi in reply to Bolt_Upright]

I agree and still hope they will be.Perhaps his display of them may have violated some agreed upon confidentiality.

[Bolt_Upright in reply to Haddi]

Well he did say he still has the gloves, and says they are doing something for him. I wonder if he has cut his meds. Anyway, thanks for sharing this.

[Haddi in reply to Bolt_Upright]

Thanks I was so syrprised, that I failed notice he still has the gloves, but doenst seem to want to use them ......that is not prromising

He states he has cut his medication, he is at the end of the 4 month period of daily usage 2x2 hours and is now in the 2nd phase of probably 2 hours a day 3days a week. That is the normal trial procedure at Stanford. He referred to that in his week 5 episode

I am to receive my gloves may 8 for a 4 month trial. 2 months programmed for effective use, 2 months possible placebo. Then can keep the gloves “until the trial is over” I too am a little unclear about how well they work for Pat

[Haddi in reply to Manypony]

Very exciting and I am very happy for you. I hope the trial allows you to share your experience. I at least would be be very interested in following.

[Manypony in reply to Haddi]

I’m very hopeful, just followed you, feel free to follow me

I think he was saying for the first part of the trial the gloves worked really well, but now he suspects he’s on the placebo arm because they have changed the algorithm and they’re not as effective. This doesn’t mean the gloves don’t work! If anything ( if in fact he is on the placebo) it proves they do!

So - our prototype of the gloves for a relative has been going very well as well. Her ability to stand up out of the same chair got almost 3x faster. Writing got clearer and faster. trips to the bathroom were actually improved as well. She's dealing with some different health issues right now but will be back to wearing them again shortly.

We actually made an updated version that is sewn into an actual Brooks lightweight running glove to make it easier to put on/take off.

can you share how you made your prototype? 🙂

[DanTeoh in reply to Bluebell2022]

it’s an arduino that I programmed as the controller. There’s an intermediate board for driving the motors on the fingertips. And then I used Vybronics motors on the pads.

Fingertips and controller boxes were all printed in PLA so my relative has been given strict guidance to not leave it out in the sun haha

[Bluebell2022 in reply to DanTeoh]

that’s all a bit too technical for me! Like Jay I would love to know if you could set them up for other PwP?

[DanTeoh in reply to Bluebell2022]

I’m consulting with some folks this weekend and will let you know our plan of attack shortly.

[Bluebell2022 in reply to DanTeoh]

look forward to hearing from you then!

[marnegro in reply to DanTeoh]

Please have me informed too if you are going to be able to prepare ( Sell) the gloves to other PWP. I’m seriously interested. Thanks

[Bluebell2022 in reply to DanTeoh]

hi Dan tech, any updates on producing the gloves for non tech types?

[DanTeoh in reply to Bluebell2022]

currently exploring the bHaptics option! My prototype gloves were fundamentally too much time effort to reproduce

[Bluebell2022 in reply to DanTeoh]

will await the bhaptics option you mentioned

[Haddi in reply to DanTeoh]

Great work I hope the health benefits will be speady

[JayPwP in reply to DanTeoh]

Are you planning to commercialise?

[Haddi]

These look great. Do you have any details on what you used.....more being way better than less

[Jandeb]

if he got into an Oregon trial that is four months
