Universal Wrist Mend

Posted in: brace, Orthosis, Orthotic, wrist

Christina Moritz’s wrist orthosis interacts with areas of tension surrounding the arm and wrist for use in cases of lesion-induced immobilization as well as post-op recovery, the device forms a temporary tensional “exoskeleton” with the body for a more flexible, frictionless, comfortable and effective healing solution. Composed of common soft foam material, it’s lightweight and capable of being produced virtually anywhere at low cost, making it an ideal solution for developing nations.

Robotic Gait

Posted in: 7-miles, Josef Ludvik Bohm, Orthosis, robotic

The 7-miles is a concept of an active robotic orthosis designed to fit physically challenged and able folks. It supports a person right from their gluteus area to the femoral and calf muscles. The support does not restrict the range of motion and is very lightweight. Thanks to a flexible design it is possible to extend the height to fit a 150 – 200cm tall person. For the able-folks, it serves as a city personal commuting system.

Thanks to compact and powerful linear electro-motors, it allows user to travel over long distances naturally, quickly and with minimum effort.
