Abstract

It is estimated that 7 – 8 per cent of the total world population comprises of mentally disabled people further within 75 – 90 per cent are intellectually challenged. Apart from this, there is a considerable rate of children who are suffering from cognitive syndromes. Many people around the world are affected by neuropsychological disorders. Unfortunately, there are no adequate solutions for strengthening their capacity and all such methods are in the infancy stage and they are dealing with animal models. This paper will provide a bird’s view of existing solutions and the recent trends that are commercially available. In addition, we are developing a unique method that will be a promising solution for treating neuropsychological disorders. There are commerciallymany tools available to assess the rodents’ behaviour and all these systems are application specified and developed for Deep Brain Stimulation studies. A system that stimulates multiple neurons along with the reward center intended for treating intellectually challenged, neurological and psychiatric subjects and the patients with brain stroke is yet to be evolved. We are developing a system that will show a new horizon in these areas. The futuristic design of our product will lead the degraded society into light and nurture them with a life of equal standardwith others. The main challenge is to verify the system in an animal model before introducing it in humans.
