About The Stabi-Charger
What it is:
People who have Parkinson's have uncontrollable hand movements that cause them to hold objects unsteadily. The purpose of the Stabi-Charger is to offer people who suffer from Parkinson's the ability to use their phones without it having to be unclear with all the shaking. It also comes with a self charging case that allows you to charge your phone whenever you want without having to previously charge it, so people who suffer from Parkinson's won't have the trouble of having to take of the case, charge it, and put it back on. This puts less stress on their hands. In addition, the stabilizer on the back acts as a stress ball as well, so you can feel free to let it all out on the ball. Finally, the Stabi-Charger's multi-functioning stabilizer acts as a stand too. When you're watching videos or a movie, you don't even have to hold it up, there's a stand to prop it up, so you can prop up your feet and just relax. The Stabi-Charger is a stabilizing, self-charging, stress relieving, convenient case intended to lessen the effects of Parkinson's when victims use a mobile device.

Components:​
The case itself is a simple case with a battery pack attached to its back as well as the stabilizer itself attached to the back of the battery pack. What the stabilizer is, is a ball bearing within a socket that compensates for the extraneous hand movements. Attached to the ball, is a dowel that extends outward with a stress ball/tennis ball attached to the end to provide an area for the user to hold the phone. Within the battery pack, is a battery, the energy source, and wiring connecting the battery to the mother board of the charger, which is connected to a USB charging port. The whole circuitry represents a series circuit because there is one path for the direct current to travel in. A diagram is shown below:
