Liftware is a brand name for a spoon designed to counteract the tremor associated with medical conditions such as Parkinson's disease[1] or essential tremors. The company which designed the projects, Lift Labs, was founded by Anupam Pathak, a University of Michigan Ph.D. student.[2]

The device works by detecting tremors with an accelerometer then responding to them with an actuator.[3] The product first became available in December 2013.[4]

Lift Labs (which made the Liftware spoon) was acquired by Google in September 2014 for integration into then life sciences division of Google X.[5] Anupam Pathak became the technical lead for the division.[2]

Google launched its version of the spoon in November 2014, priced at $195.[6]
