Reshape Hand Recovery Potential
The intelligent pneumatic haptic device and data platform transforming hand tele-rehabilitation for stroke survivors, seniors, and beyond.
Every year, over 15 million people worldwide face the challenges of hand impairment due to stroke, cerebral palsy (CP), or spinal cord injury (SCI). Shockingly, only a fraction (around 11.6% of stroke survivors) regain full hand dexterity.
Beyond acute conditions, aging populations (over 50 million elderly) struggle with reduced grip strength, pinching accuracy, and range of motion, impacting daily life and independence. Conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis add to this growing need.
Manual exercises can be repetitive and lack motivation.
One-size-fits-all approaches don't cater to individual needs.
Objective, granular data is often missing to optimize therapy.
Expensive clinic devices and frequent visits are burdensome.
The result? Suboptimal recovery journeys, increased healthcare costs, and frustrated patients and therapists. There's a critical need for a smarter, more accessible solution.
PAL-HAND is a revolutionary system combining a portable, innovative pneumatic haptic feedback device with an intelligent companion platform.
Our soft, ergonomic device uses precisely controlled air pressure to create nuanced tactile sensations, making virtual exercises feel incredibly real. Integrated sensors meticulously track hand movements, feeding data into our platform which delivers personalized, gamified exercises.
PAL-HAND enables effective therapy outside the clinic. Patients engage at home, while therapists gain valuable insights to optimize treatment remotely.
Hold the ergonomic PAL-HAND device. Soft bladders provide precise tactile feedback for your exercises.
Follow engaging, game-like exercises on our platform that adapt to your performance.
Internal sensors capture detailed data on movement, force, and ROM automatically.
Data is securely shared, providing insights to fine-tune your treatment plan remotely.
Continue high-quality rehabilitation from home, increasing adherence and convenience.
Soft, air-controlled bladders create highly nuanced and realistic tactile feedback (pressure, resistance, texture) unlike simple vibration.
High-fidelity sensors capture detailed kinematic and force data (movement, ROM, grip) with high accuracy.
Cloud-based analysis powers personalized exercises, automated suggestions, progress visualization, and richer insights.
PAL-HAND was born from the work of engineering researchers at Politecnico di Torino (IT). Inspired by the need to overcome current therapy limitations, our mission is to make effective, data-driven rehabilitation accessible to everyone, improving outcomes and advancing tele-rehabilitation.
Discover how PAL-HAND's unique blend of haptic technology and intelligent data analysis can benefit you.
