UCLA’s affordable AI-powered magnetic pen for early Parkinson’s diagnosis

Researchers at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) have created a 3D printed pen that detects subtle tremors in handwriting, offering a potential tool for diagnosing Parkinson’s disease.  Co-authored by Professor Jun Chen, the device relies on magnetic particles and electrical signals to record small movements linked to the neurodegenerative disorder. The professor explained […]
