ESP32 Stabilised Spoon for Parkinson's Disease

ESP32 Stabilised Spoon for Parkinson's Disease

A self-levelling spoon for hand tremor: an ESP32 fuses MPU6050 accelerometer and gyro data to hold the spoon head level with two servos, correcting roll and pitch in real time.

  • Built to counteract hand tremor from Parkinson's disease or essential tremor
  • Complementary filter fuses MPU6050 accelerometer and gyro data into a stable roll/pitch estimate
  • Two servos actively counter measured tilt in real time to hold the spoon head level
  • Boot-time auto-calibration zeroes out mounting offset in about a second
