MetaGait is an innovative mobility rehabilitation device that imitates patients’ gait, preventing at least 30 different diseases caused by immobility.
MetaGait:
- Enables remote rehabilitation via special sensors,
- Creates a virtual environment, constantly adapting to the patients’ needs,
- Helps form new neural connections in the brain, activating muscle memory.
Many of our war soldiers lost their mobility due to various injuries, and their health condition is getting worse.
Because of immobility, they are at risk of getting at least 30 different diseases, including
- venous stasis,
- cardiovascular diseases,
- sensory systems disorders,
- decubitus ulcer,
- hypostatic pneumonia, etc.
David Osipyan
After the Four-Day War (2016), kinesiologist David Arsenyan started treating wounded soldiers and developing the initial version of MetaGait.
After founding the QaylTech company, David and his team continued working on the development of the device to help our veterans with mobility issues. They have obtained positive results thus far.
Today, their hard work has paid off. They have created the world’s first innovative MetaGait device.
This innovative solution has had positive effects on the development of a functional gait pattern in children with cerebral palsy and brain & spinal cord injuries.
Children can move all the components of the device with just one hand, at the same time moving all the parts of the body.
