Top 10 Startups developing Bionic prosthesis and Exoskeletons
Updated: April 19, 2024 |
Bionic prosthesis and exoskeletons represent groundbreaking technologies that are transforming the lives of individuals with limb loss or mobility impairments. Bionic prosthesis utilizes advanced robotics and neural interfaces to provide individuals with natural and functional limb replacements, while exoskeletons use mechanical structures and motors to augment strength and mobility, enabling people with mobility limitations to regain independence and engage in daily activities.

60 million people in the world have lost walking ability. 17 million are children affected by a number of neurological diseases. While wheelchair bounded, they suffer from a number of physiological and psychological side effects. Their quality of life could be largely improved if walking could be repaired, restored or rehabilitated. Marsi Bionics works towards this goal.
