Designing and developing an assistive device to enable people with resting tremor to hold a cup stably

 

 

The venture aims to design and develop an assistive device for people who suffer from resting tremor to enable them to hold a cup stably and thus improve their quality of life and self-reliance. The device minimises involuntary or unwanted oscillations of the cup caused by the tremor so that users can drink safely, effectively and independently.
