  • Patent number: 6788976
    Abstract: Movement timing stimulators that aid in the relief of the symptoms of neurological movement disorders are provided. In one embodiment, a movement stimulator has a control unit. A stimulator is coupled to an output of the control unit. The stimulator is adapted to provide stimulation to an area of the body of a living subject. A sensor is also coupled to the control unit and is adapted to be disposed external to the body. The sensor is adapted to respond to a physical stimulus and to provide input to the control unit. The stimulator adapts to this physical stimulus to selectively provide at least one of a dual-polarity signal for providing cutaneous stimulation, a phased signal for providing surround sound aural stimulation, and a signal for providing visual stimulation transmitted to the stimulator by the control unit.

  • Patent number: 6704603
    Abstract: An adaptive stimulator that aids in the relief of the symptoms of neurological disorders is provided. The adaptive stimulator is adapted to selectively provide stimulation in response to a control unit. The stimulator includes at least one stimulation electrode coupled to an output of the control unit. The at least one stimulation electrode is adapted to provide stimulation to an area of the body of a living subject. The adaptive stimulator includes at least one sensor coupled to the control unit and adapted to be disposed external to the body. The at least one sensor is adapted to respond to physical stimulus and provide input to the control unit.
