Why work with us
Problem
Following a brain injury, such as a stroke, survivors are mostly left with the hand disability even after undergoing the conventional therapy.
It is estimated that worldwide more than 16,000,000 stroke survivors live with the hand disability.
Hand disability degrades the quality of life for survivors, prevents them to return to work and puts a big financial burden on survivors, their families, and the health system.
Solution
Neurofeedback training provided via brain-computer interfaces may enhance the quality of motions for hand muscles after neural injuries.
RehabSwift has developed an innovative brain-computer interface including software and hardware that enhances motor, sensory and cognitive capabilities for survivors of neural injuries such as a stroke.
The solution receives EEG signals, and accordingly sends commands to the bionic hands.
The bionic hands developed by RehabSwift are state-of-the art devices that receive commands from software and enable the user to receive real-time visual and haptic feedback.
Benefits
Recovers the hand movement
Restores the sensation in the arm and hand
Improves cognitive capabilities
Reduces sensory neglect
