High schoolers create device to keep seniors with Parkinson’s from falling, inspired by cats

I just love this story! Two high school students from Calgary, Allen Guo-Lu and Luotong Shi, have designed a 3D-printed wearable 'tail' to help seniors with Parkinson’s maintain their balance. Inspired by the way cats use their tails for stability, this innovative device not only aids those with Parkinson’s but could also assist anyone facing balance challenges. Plus, it’s affordable, costing around $100, making it a practical solution for many. Their project highlights the incredible potential of young minds in science and technology!
