New Mexico Students Engineer Glove to Help Parkinson's Disease Patients

[Neurosmith]

Pretty brief, but I find it interesting that a college professor is helping high school students build DIY gloves.

Thanks for sharing. I consider it a highly sensitive and educational inititive. Good professor!

It would be useful to know if this will develop.

[Bluebell2022 in reply to Fed1000]

Yes definitely!

I believe something similar is happening at Rice University in Houston, Texas

[Bluebell2022]

Are there any contact details for the department producing the glove?

Just came across a longer, more in depth article on this in a New Mexico online newspaper:

Thank you very much Neurosmith, evidently they don't need FDA approval.

[Neurosmith in reply to Fed1000]

If they tried to commercialize it, sell it, and make claims of its medical benefits, then they would need FDA approval. I do wonder what will happen if Stanford's lawyers hear about it though.

[TeamPG in reply to Neurosmith]

Stanford doesn’t own the patent for the gloves.

[Neurosmith in reply to TeamPG]

Peter Tass has several patents on the vCR technology.

[TeamPG in reply to Neurosmith]

Understood. Those are not the glove patents.

Stay tuned. It should get interesting.
