Parkinson’s disease body illusion

Transports is an interactive installation from Analogue , a theatre/art group, sponsored by the Wellcome Trust, which creates the illusion that the viewer is experiencing Parkinson’s symptoms. As in the rubber hand illusion , the mind is tricked into believing that the user’s hand is the hand shown in some point-of-view video; while a glove with motors makes them feel the tremors associated with the disease. The whole setup is controlled by a Raspberry Pi.
