Exynergy creates lightweight, wearable robots with artificial muscles made from Shear Thickening Gel to help older adults move more easily. Controlled by real-time neuro signals, these devices work like natural muscles without delay. After successful testing and positive feedbacks, the team focuses on commercialising these smart wearables, first for senior and later expanding to global rehabilitation markets, improving mobility and independence worldwide.
