Gyro-LIFT is an imaginative hostile to tremor settling handle to help individuals with hand tremor eat, lift and convey utensils effortlessly. The device compensates for the shaking and allows the food to stay on the spoon or fork without spilling. The device senses the hand tremor motion and automatically stabilizes the attached utensil. The utensil can be a spoon, fork or larger dining and kitchen vessels. This project needs a very low power microcontroller but with high performance signal processing requirements. STM32L476 from STMicroelectronics meets this needs and thus chosen as the main MCU. It is an ultra low power ARM Cortex-M4 based microcontroller that can run upto 80MHz. It has got 1MB of Flash memory and 128 KB RAM memory.
