    The document presents data and results from testing a Parkinson's tremor stabilizing spoon. Tables show results from 5 test subjects grading the spoon on parameters like stability, weight, and functionality. Scores were mostly above average. Testing involved subjects imitating tremor motions. The spoon countered tilting well but not extreme horizontal or vertical movements. Overall the project was deemed a success meeting expectations.

    DATA AND RESULTS

    Stated in the figures below are the data gathered from the testing of the Parkinson’s Tremor stabilizing
    spoon.

    Shown in the tables below are the results gathered by the group. The testers were asked to grade and
    assess every parameters set and were graded from 1 to 5. 1 being the lowest, 5 being the highest. The
    parameters include the spoon’s stability, the weight of the device, the reaction time, and functionality of
    the project.

    Since the group could not find a person with Parkinson’s disease, the group then decided to test the
    project using each member. Each one would use the spoon and imitate a tremor-like motion. In the data
    shown above, the reaction time between the servo and the gyroscope are almost instantaneous, but not
    fast enough to generate an extra force.

    Since the program only counters the tilting motion experienced by the gyroscope, it could not prevent
    extreme horizontal and vertical movement which sometimes results into spillage of the content of the
    spoon. In this case, the Parkinson’s tremor stabilizing spoon is only intended for minimal tremors and is
    not suitable for extreme horizontal and vertical motion and movement.

    Overall, the group considers this project as a success. All of the important parameters are graded above
    average. The functionality of the project, overall, is considered to be above the group’s expectation.
    With this, the Parkinson’s tremor stabilizing spoon is now ready for testing for patients with real
    Parkinson ’s disease.
