Features

Robotic body interface

A dynamic, robotic, tentacle-based body interface, which will autonomously connect to the stump and dynamically adjust to the stump morphology and sensitivities.

AI-based, autonomous, robotic joints

AI-based, autonomic robotic joints provide precise, predictive locomotion functions that will closely imitate human natural movement.

Lightweight, Strong & adjustable elasticity

Substantial improvement in weight/strength ratio while providing programmable elasticity.

Programmable visibility

Our artificial limb visualization including colors, textures and information display, will be dynamic, programmable and will allow customization and personalization.

Active foot

A dynamic, robotic, low weight foot that will provide shape shifting and usage profile adaptation capabilities. It will contain micro movement mechanism to provide superior stabilization function and balance support.

Environment sensing

Optical, lidar, sonar and other sensors will collect environment data, to be used by all autonomic, AI based components, so that locomotion and other functions will smoothly respond to changing conditions.

Autonomous battery charge

An electric, lightweight power source, rechargeable by harvesting mechanical energy from the artificial limb, or alternatively by sunlight, or a standard electric power source.

Medical and healthcare functions

The ability of the artificial limb to sense physical, biological and medical information and provide active continues monitoring, responses and possibly treatments to various medical condition and especially for diabetic.

User centric App

Mobile applications that provide full control of the artificial limb's behavior and appearance to the user. The application will communicate with the Artificial limb Operating system and provide the users with maintenance data, medical and health data and a set of added-value functions.

LIFE-CHANGING

Why is it life-changing?

Normalizes

The new artificial limb will provide an intuitive, natural experience, helping users regain routine, freedom of movement and confidence as if it is an integral part of their own body.

Empowers

Advanced adaptability will let users go back to their preferred activities with minimal limitations.

Connects

Beyond function, the new artificial limb will create a sense of belonging, connecting people with shared experiences and fostering mutual support.

Heals

The new artificial limb will support physical and emotional recovery, enhancing independence, confidence and resilience.
Problems we aim to solve

Body-Interface

Body interfaces are based on a non-breathable silicon sock that tightly surrounds the stump. They are difficult to wear, can't be adjusted to fit the stump, change morphology and cause a palette of medical problems, including pressure wounds, extensive sweating, skin irritation and blood supply interference.

Many usage profiles

Walking on different surfaces, running, gender physiological differences, performing water sports or outdoor activities and even an elegant night out often require changing day-to-day artificial limb to a mission-specific one while enforcing the user to own and maintain a multitude of artificial limbs to support a specific usage profile.

Weight and strength

Our natural limbs provide us with the precise combination of weight, skeleton strength and level of elasticity that is required to perform locomotion functions smoothly and harmonically. Current artificial limbs are poorly addressing the issue.

Medical care

An artificial limb is a device that is being used by its users extensively, for a long period during the day and in close contact with the body. Its potential to become an active medical and health device and provide care and bio-medical information is mostly ignored.

Locomotion

In an unharmed body, our brain processes environmental signals and its body posture then designs and executes a movement that accurately correlates to one’s intentions. Current artificial limbs lack the ability to effectively sense the environment, the body posture, or one’s intentions and are not providing the required locomotion response.

Gender-specific

Current artificial limbs do not refer to the many physiological, psychological and behavioral differences between genders.

Body image

Losing a limb triggers a set of body image difficulties that are poorly addressed in current artificial limbs.
