Project description
Innovative and cost-effective bionic prosthetic service
Lower-limb amputees experience physical and psychological pain that current prostheses cannot alleviate. Axiles Bionics aims to address this gap with next-generation bionic prostheses that integrate advanced robotics and AI to provide better adaptation to each amputee’s unique lifestyle. The EIC-funded Solaris Project will develop an innovative and cost-effective model, called Prosthetics-as-a-Service (PaaS), based on Axiles Bionics’ Solaris design. This service includes component maintenance, daily data monitoring, predictive maintenance, and continuous upgrades. In-house studies indicate that over 85 % of participants found the solution essential, reporting improved natural gait, reduced peripheral pain (in the knees, hips, and back), and restored physical and mental balance, highlighting the significant value of this system.
Objective
Lower-limb amputees face physical and psychological pains that marketed prostheses are unable to relieve. Axiles Bionics aims to fill the clear world-wide market gap with next-generation bionic prostheses combining advanced robotics & AI, ensuring complete adaptation to amputee’s lifestyle. By virtue of its features, our technology creates a revolutionary cost-effective market concept “Prosthetics-as-a-Service” (PraaS) with our Solaris design. Our PraaS model ensures component-to-component maintenance, daily data gathering & monitoring system, predictive maintenance, and continuous upgrades. The fitness to the job-to-be-done of our solution has been already proven by in-house studies, where more than 85% of tested subjects expressed their astonishment and defined it as a must-have. Data from these studies show significant increase natural gait, less peripheral pains (knees/hips/back) and restoring of physical and mental balance, clear proof of the superior added value of our solution.
