Abstract: Essential Tremor is the most common form of pathological tremor, it is a common neurological movement disorder causing involuntary oscillations in body parts. This work approaches a light weight, wearable tremor suppression orthosis using an spring on-off technique.   This method uses a wearable inertial sensor to extract tremor data and the data is given to Matlab wavelet code for estimating severity of tremor frequency then based on its output spring on-off technique is applied.

Keywords: Essential Tremor, Vibration Sensor, Wavelet Analysis, Spring on-off technique, Tremor suppression, Matlab Software.
