Abstract: One of the severe neurological disorders that affects the central nervous system is Parkinson’s disease, which causes that patients can not perform routine tasks such as eating and writing. According to statistical data, there are more than 10 million people in the world who suffer from this disease and the Latin American nation of Peru is no stranger to this, since approximately 30 thousand people suffer from it. Until today there is not a cure for this disease; however, there are different chemical, biological and electronic methods that help to improve the quality of life of patients with this disease. This research aims to design a low-cost device that is able to diminish tremors in patients with Parkinson. The non-invasive device presented and developed in this study will work with the help of 5 vibratory motors and a microcontroller. The vibrations generated by the motors in the patient’s wrist will distract the brain and as result the tremors of the hand due to Parkinson’s disease will be reduced.

Keywords: Parkinson; non-invasive device; vibrations; Arduino
