So, the new ‚racing car‘ glove looks a bit like a bHaptics TactGlove 🙂😉.

[cgreg in reply to Ethin]

Maybe the geeks at Stanford were inspired by some of the DIY glove projects. The new-generation gloves (shown at around the 47- minute mark on the video) are wireless and cost much less than the first-generation gloves which cost USD5,000 a pair. The pilot study for the new-generation gloves started a few weeks ago.

Also he mentioned an awareness of the Synergic trials but I didn't understand what stanford were doing about them.

[cgreg in reply to WinnieThePoo]

Dr. Tass mentioned that Stanford agreed to let them proceed with the trials. This could have been a decision that was made in order to avoid a costly litigation with Synergic.

[WinnieThePoo in reply to cgreg]

What he said was "stanford has decided not to stop this collaboration"But he sometimes stumbles with his English.

That's not the same as "allowed them to proceed with the trials"

And he didn't sound all that comfortable about it.

[WinnieThePoo in reply to Ethin]

It looks more like an original glove with no wires to the controller! The glove finger straps and pods look similar. Maybe slightly less bulky. I wonder what these new "few bucks" motors are. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a 9mm exciter.

[WinnieThePoo in reply to WinnieThePoo]

And a big caution about DIY. Also, no socks or shoes.And a "one size fits all" approach

[Ethin in reply to WinnieThePoo]

"..no socks or shoes". yes, I noticed that, too -- and had to smile, as I just tried out some vCR socks for the first time yesterday. 😀 More on that later.

[PWPInnovate898 in reply to WinnieThePoo]

He also mentioned that stimulation parameter calibration is done via per patient brain measurements (assume qEEG?) but not whether it’s in real time or after data accumulation and analysis. Good news on the cost front, too. Looks like they worked around the expensive and tightly spec’d tactors.

any mention of when these might be generally available?

[saraoutwest in reply to Boscoejean]

he said maybe around 2-3 years for FDA approval

[Dior2008]

And any mention of possible pilot studies in Europe?

[cgreg in reply to Dior2008]

He did not mention specific locations but he did clarify that the clinical trials will utilize multiple locations. Since funding for this project is not a concern, European sites will probably be included.

[Dior2008]

I had a mail exchange with Prof. Tass 3 montns ago and told me to get back to him in Summer, but in the meantime things might have changed. He mentioned probably getting the FDA approval in 2 to 3 years. I think it would go faster.

[Fed1000 in reply to Dior2008]

Ciao Dior2008, sai a cosa si riferisce il Dott. Tass quando dice che le cose potrebbero essere cambiate? Stai usando i guanti anche tu?

[Fed1000 in reply to Fed1000]

oopss..hi Dior2008, do you know what Dott. Tass is referring to when he says things may have changed? Do you use gloves too?

[Dior2008 in reply to Fed1000]

Non è un problema, capisco l'italiano e lo scrivo un po' anche. I wanted to say he was not sure of the timetable neither in the USA, nor in Europe. Voleva insistare sullo fatto di stare attento

[Dior2008 in reply to Dior2008]

Unfortunately, no. I have told him I would like to join the future trials in Europe!

[Fed1000 in reply to Dior2008]

Thank you very much Dior.

[Kwisatz]

2-3 years? Unfortunately, there will be 5-6 of them... (((((((((((((((((

[GermanShepherd79]

so these gloves have been in testing for five years…so what is the holdup with making them available?

[GermanShepherd79]

While they are doping around, people are dying. My friend died of Parkinson’s last week. They pushed that stupid COVID vax out without testing. Clearly these gloves work for five years. They need to get off their a** and make them available. How many will die in 3 more years?

[Taranto98 in reply to GermanShepherd79]

I totally agree with you comments. Many if not most DIY people are experiencing substantial results.

When I go to my Rock Steady class, I see my friends suffer and deteriorate . And I believe the glove could prevent this.

Thank goodness for Synergic !
