a motion-generating mechanism at least partially disposed within the housing;
an attachment arm extending from the housing and having first and second ends, the first end coupled to the motion-generating mechanism and the second end configured to attach a user assistive device or attached to the user assistive device, wherein the attachment arm is movable relative to the housing;
a motion sensor adapted to sense a motion of the handheld system and generate a feedback signal in response to the motion; and
a control system disposed within the housing and coupled to the motion sensor to receive the feedback signal from the motion sensor, the control system further coupled to the motion-generating mechanism and configured to control movement of the attachment arm with commands generated based at least in part upon the feedback signal from the motion sensor, wherein the commands direct the motion-generating mechanism to move the attachment arm relative to the housing to stabilize human tremor movements of the housing.
