ReactGlove
A new solution to an old problem
Reacting to Parkinson's disease, one tremor at a time.
About ReactGlove
SMART & INNOVATE
Introducing the ReactGlove - a revolutionary glove that aims to tackle the problem of hand tremors in individuals with neuromuscular degenerative conditions. Equipped with embedded accelerometers, it can detect and identify movements and utilizes reaction wheels to counteract hand tremors, shakes, and instability. This SMART glove is designed to provide relief to those who struggle with hand tremors and improve their quality of life.
LOW COST & AFFORDABLE
We have created the most cost-effective glove available on the market by utilizing high-quality materials at a low price. Our materials are environmentally friendly, making our product completely sustainable.

Mission
Our Mission
Our team started this project because of our strong desire to end hand tremors. We all knew at least one relative or family friend who had Parkinson’s and could not control their tremors. Seeing them struggle on daily tasks was unbearable. This planted the seed for our idea to create an anti-tremor glove, the ReactGlove. Our team studied coding Arduinos to create a working program that changes the wheel speed based on movement information from the accelerometer. After months of research, we created a fully-functional prototype with wheels and wiring. We gained valuable connections with different mentors from Brown University, the University of Houston, and the University of Texas throughout our venture. We aim to use our skills and resources in order to provide the greatest amount of success for the ReactGlove and, more importantly, its users - one tremor at a time
