Default Google Invests in Smart Spoons for Parkinson's Patients
Lift Labs' Liftware system cancels minor hand tremors to make it easier for patients to eat. Lift Tabs has produced a spoon, and intends to develop a soup spoon, fork, and other attachments in the future. According to the COMPANY, the device cancels out an average of 70% of tremors while eating. Google stated that Liftware "could improve quality of life for millions of people" on its Google+ account.
