SteadyScrib is a startup founded by students at Northwestern University.
Alexis Chan and Izzy Mokotoff invented the first writing utensil specifically designed for people with Parkinson's.
They were just awarded new funding that will allow the team to launch their product this summer.
Chan and Mokotoff joined ABC7 Thursday to talk more about the inspiration behind the device.
