Vestibular Stimulation System
First Claim
1. A vestibular stimulation system, comprising:
- a housing;
a power supply disposed in the housing;
an electrode assembly adapted to be coupled to the housing;
a controller disposed in the housing and operatively coupled to the power supply, wherein the controller controls delivery of energy from the power supply to the electrode assembly;
an input element disposed on an exterior surface of the housing, wherein the input element is manually manipulated to control the operation of the vestibular stimulation system;
a display disposed on an exterior surface of the housing, wherein the display is adapted to provide visual information regarding the operation of the vestibular stimulation system, anda mounting assembly coupled to the housing to mount the housing on such a user.

Abstract
A vestibular stimulation system and method that includes a housing, a power supply disposed in the housing, an electrode assembly adapted to be coupled to the housing, and a controller disposed in the housing and operatively coupled to the power supply. The controller controls the delivery of energy from the power supply to the electrode assembly. An input element is also disposed on an exterior surface of the housing. The input element is manually manipulated to control the operation of the vestibular stimulation system. A display disposed on an exterior surface of the housing provides visual information regarding the operation of the vestibular stimulation system. A mounting assembly is coupled to the housing to mount the housing on such a user.
