Gyro glove now on the market

Has anyone tried these gloves? They got great press at tech world trade fair recently. The company is based in Singapore which I’m stopping over in a few months. I have been welcomed by the team to try them first and will purchase if they give me relief. They are not cheap but will be worth every cent if successful!

So, I think, these gyro gloves are not disease modifying or therapeutic, but the gyroscopes in the gloves attempt to steady hand tremors so you can use your hands.

That's not nothing, I just wanted to make sure people were not thinking these were some type of Tass gloves.

Yes, very different to the Tass gloves. I need something right now to settle my severe tremor, and all the muscle spasms the tremors cause. C/L does work but I get alot of off time. I just want some immediate relief from the shaking which is by far my worse symptom. I’ll definitely be purchasing Tass gloves when available

Hello, you said the company is based on Singapore but the address on their web site is in the UK. Do you have the Singapore contact details? Thanks.

I feel like there's got to be something more going on here than just the gyroscope. The dampening effect just seems similar to holding someone's hand still. Maybe since the moment of inertia response is immediate, the feedback loop is faster and better because of it?

Also, the hyperlink to testing doesn't work. Anyone have any papers or articles testing the device in some quantifiable way?

I agree, $5,000 is over the top expensive. Hopefully when the Tass gloves come out they will be more affordable.
