LIFTWARE: A SPOON THAT WAS NEVER GROWED

For those who suffer from Parkinson's disease, maybe eating is a difficult activity. Their hands will always vibrate when feeding something to their mouth so that the food often falls. However, a company from San Francisco has created a solution to this problem, named Liftware.

Liftware is a stabilizer handle that can be used as soup, tablespoons, and forks.

Lifts are specifically designed to improve the lives of essential Tremor sufferers, Parkinson's, or other movement disorders. This smart spoon will help stabilize tremor (rhythmic muscle movement) for people with Parkinson's.

Even if you vibrate, turn, tilt, or even reverse, this spoon will remain in the position where the food it carries will not fall. Related, sufferers of tremor and Parkinson's disease can eat food voraciously independently.

This smart spoon itself has an embedded computer that will take motion signals detected by tremor sensors. Then, this spoon will fight vibration by moving in the opposite direction. The test results show that this spoon can reduce up to 70% tremor.

There are 2 variants provided, namely Steady and Liftware. The steady level is intended for those who suffer from tremors with lower severity. Where the sufferer can still hold the spoon and deliver it to the mouth in an independent manner.


Whereas Liftware Level is used for sufferers who can't even hold a spoon at all. This tool is able to bend the handle by itself and adjust the movement of the spoon to the mouth position.
