Cometa
Cometa specializes in the design of miniaturized wireless systems for electromyography (EMG) and motion tracking. Their Wave and Miniwave sensors provide objective data on muscle recruitment and gait kinematics. These systems are used as enabling technologies for clinical assessment and technology development within the global wearable robotics and rehabilitation sectors.
Articares
Articares develops intelligent rehabilitation systems designed to behave as clinical partners for therapists. Their flagship product, the H-Man, is a compact, portable robotic device for upper-limb neurorehabilitation. It uses AI-driven assessments to adapt therapy difficulty to the patient’s real-time performance, aimed at stroke, brain injury, and elderly patients.
IRMO Global
IRMO Global develops high-tech consumer and sports exoskeletons. Their primary product, the IRMO M1, is a lightweight AI-powered leg exoskeleton that uses visual perception (Camera + LADAR) to adapt support to varying terrain in real-time. Designed for hikers and outdoor enthusiasts, it provides powered knee assistance to reduce fatigue and impact during treks and descents.
EASE – Ergonomische Assistenzsysteme
EASE develops active (powered) wearable assistants for the logistics and manufacturing sectors. Their primary product is a lightweight active exoskeleton designed to support the arms and shoulders during lifting and carrying tasks. The system utilizes AI-supported intention recognition and high-performance TQ-RoboDrive motors to provide seamless assistance with minimal delay.
Noraxon
Noraxon develops high-end biomechanical sensors and motion capture systems used for human movement analysis. Their portfolio includes wireless electromyography (EMG), inertial sensors (IMU), and pressure-sensing tools. These systems are widely used as ‘enabling technology’ for the evaluation of exoskeletons and the development of bio-signal controlled wearable robotics in clinical and research contexts.
INSPIRE-ROBOTS
INSPIRE-ROBOTS develops high-precision micro-actuation systems and dexterous manipulators. Their micro linear servo actuators are designed for compact robotics, including wearable systems and robotic hands for clinical and service use. They focus on providing integrated ‘moving parts’ for human-like robotic interaction and augmentation.
Sensodrive
Sensodrive develops and manufactures torque-sensing drive systems and actuators. Their SensoJoint series is a family of lightweight, torque-controlled robotic joints used in the development of collaborative robots and medical exoskeletons. They provide ‘enabling technology’ for manufacturers requiring high-fidelity force control and human-safe interaction in wearable robotic systems.
TQ-Systems (RoboDrive)
TQ-Systems, through its RoboDrive brand, manufactures high-torque density BLDC motors and drive systems. Their ILM-E frameless motor series is specifically optimized for weight and performance in wearable robotics, used by numerous exoskeleton manufacturers to achieve smooth human-robot interaction. They operate as a tier-1 component supplier for the global human augmentation market.
Instead Technologies
Instead Technologies develops innovative robotic solutions for healthcare. Their flagship system, In-Touch, is designed for the intensive rehabilitation of the upper limbs in patients with neurological damage. They focus on providing affordable, evidence-based robotic tools that facilitate motor recovery through repetitive, task-oriented exercises in clinical settings.
GaitBetter
GaitBetter develops an add-on system that transforms any standard treadmill into a motor-cognitive training platform. The system uses VR and motion sensors to provide real-time cognitive challenges and gait feedback, designed to improve executive function and reduce fall risk in neurological and geriatric patients. While not a wearable exoskeleton, it is a primary clinical robotic […]
