Portable IoT device helps Parkinson’s disease patients to manage their symptoms

• The number of Parkinson’s disease (PD) sufferers has doubled over the last 25 years to reach 8.5 million cases worldwide (WHO, 2019).
• British neurotechnology start-up Charco Neurotech has developed the CUE1, a non-invasive vibrating device that patients wear on their sternums, which helps to reduce PD motor symptoms.
• At the same time, advances in neural prostheses and soft robotics are opening up new perspectives to improve PD patients’ mobility, while other innovations are using AI to facilitate remote testing and diagnostics.
