Ngokucabanga kwabantu abadala kanye neziguli zikaParkinson ikakhulukazi, iqembu labaphenyi abavela eNyuvesi yaseHouston lisungule ibhande elihlakaniphile lelo kunciphisa ubungozi bokuwa ukwenza lula ukuthi bakwazi ukugcina ibhalansi.
Lesi sesekeli esisha isebenza ngokudlidliza nangokuxhumeka nohlelo efakwe kwi-smartphone, iba usizo olukhulu kunoma ngubani onenkinga yokulinganisela njengoba ivimbela ukuwa nazo zonke izinkinga ezingabangelwa yizo, kufaka phakathi ukufa.
Uhlelo lweSmarter Balance System, okunye ukuphumelela kwezobuchwepheshe nezempilo
Ithimba labaphenyi abavela eNyuvesi yaseHouston (eTexas, e-United States) lisungule lokho okubizwa nge- "Smarter Balance System", uhlelo oluqukethe uhlelo lwe-smartphone nebhande elihlakaniphile eliza lihlome izinzwa ezikwazi ukuqopha ukunyakaza kwabantu nokuthumela ukudlidlizelisa ukubaqondisa ngokusebenzisa uchungechunge lokuzivocavoca ibhalansi.

U-Alberto Fung, ongomunye wabaphenyi beqembu le-University of Houston, kuchazile ukuthi uhlelo lokusebenza lweselula lirekhoda ukunyakaza kwesiguli futhi ngokuya ngalokhu, kwakha "ukunyakaza okungokwezifiso kokuthambekela komzimba wakho ngokuya ngemikhawulo yakho yokuzinza", ngendlela yokuthi uhlelo lusebenze ngokungathi ludokotela womzimba.
Ngaphezu kwalokhu, lolu hlelo lubuye lunikeze umhlahlandlela obukwayo esikrinini se-smartphone, futhi luqophe okwenziwa yisiguli kuseva eku-inthanethi ukuze udokotela noma owelapha akwazi ukwenza ukuqapha okukude kwenqubekela phambili yakho, lungisa izivivinyo, njalonjalo.
U-Beom-Chan Lee, omunye umcwaningi kuleli qembu, uthi inhloso yabo ukusiza ukuthuthukisa ikhwalithi yempilo "ngokuthuthukisa ukuzinza kwangemuva, ukunciphisa inani lokuwa nokwandisa ukuzethemba kwakho emisebenzini yansuku zonke." Ngokusho kukaLee, iziguli zikaParkinson ezibambe iqhaza esifundweni sasekhaya samasonto ayisithupha zikhombise "ukuthuthuka okumangazayo."
