We can help you choose the right product to fit your needs. Our multidisciplinary team is experienced in neuroscience, engineering, physiology, electronics, machining and software development. We work closely with basic and clinical researchers to integrate our technologies into their unique research programs to accelerate their research and achieve their goals.
Which platform to choose
The key differences between the robotic labs are:
- Exoskeleton robot provides feedback from, and control of, the shoulder and elbow joints. End-Point does not
- Exoskeleton robot provides gravity support for subjects with upper arm weakness such as in subjects with stroke, spinal cord injury, Parkinson’s, or multiple sclerosis
- End-Point robot is stiffer than the Exoskeleton, allowing much higher feedback gains in the control loop. For example, force channels are possible with the Kinarm End-Point robot, whereas they are not possible with the Kinarm Exoskeleton
- End-Point Lab was specifically designed to be modular to enable expansion of the lab as funds become available. One can start with just a single unilateral robot, or you can build all the way up to the Adjustable Height Configuration Kinarm End-Point Lab with VR/AR presentation of visual stimuli and integrated gaze-tracking in a fully automated or custom control environment using our Dexterit-E operating system with Kinarm Standard Tests
- Where “assessment time” is short, and gravity support of the upper limb is not required, time can be saved (~10 minutes) by using the End-Point Lab as opposed to the Exoskeleton Lab
