Turkish schoolchildren come up with a way to cope with tremors

Schoolchildren from Turkey have invented a unique device that can help people suffering from Parkinson's disease, Huntington, and other similar diseases.

The fact is that with these diseases, people find it difficult to cope with the trembling of hands, uncontrolled muscle contractions and sometimes not even being able to keep cutlery.

Schoolboys have come up with a special attachment, which is put on a fork or spoon and thanks to which the stability of the tableware is maintained, regardless of external fluctuations.

The tests were quite successful, now the teenagers are working on the design of their invention.

It should be noted that their innovative development is planned to be encouraged: the invention will be awarded a prize in the field of education.
