Demonstrating ROBERT® and Armeo®Spring Pro at MiNT Conference 2025

We are looking forward to exhibiting at MiNT 2025 and showcasing the latest technology in neurorehabilitation on Stand 8 in the exhibition area.

Taking place at the CentrEd at the Excel in London on Thursday 16th October, this year’s theme is “Neurotechnology in Practice: Measuring Impact on Patient Outcomes.” Click here to register for your ticket. 

Find us in the exhibition area where we will be demonstrating two new devices for upper and lower limb rehabilitation – the ROBERT® and the Armeo®Spring Pro!

Speaker sessions and posters

To learn even more about ROBERT®, make sure you visit the poster area where The Children’s Trust are presenting their poster:

“Application of the first UK paediatric ROBERT® trial: a novel step towards enhancing robotics for children with acquired brain injury.”

Make sure you attend Dr Louise Johnson’s talk at 10:30 – 10:50. The Acute Stroke Unit at the University Hospitals Dorset have been using the Hocoma Lokomat robotic gait trainer since 2021, and Erigo robotic tilt table since 2024.

“Rehabilitation in the NHS: Can Robots Do It Better?”

In this presentation, Dr Johnson will share how an acute stroke service is working to adopt robotics in practice, and will give an honest insight into the benefits, challenges, and future aspirations.

Furthermore we are looking forward to Mark McIntosh’s talk at 11:20 – 11:40. Mark has been using the Motek C-Mill VR treadmill at Hobbs Rehabilitation in Bristol, who are Summit’s UK Reference Centre for rehabilitation technology.

“Is There a Place for (Neuro)Technology in Amputee Rehabilitation?”

This session will explore how neurotechnology can be used to enhance client outcomes in amputee rehabilitation, and serve as a valuable tool for measuring rehabilitation progress.

This is illustrated through a case study that integrates a combination of different neurotechnologies, including the Motek C-Mill VR treadmill.

Demonstrating the ROBERT®

The ROBERT® is a portable robotic device for early and acute mobilisation and rehabilitation. Developed by Life Science Robotics, ROBERT® is the only acute therapy device that can train both the upper and lower limb with one system.

ROBERT® offers active resistive, active assistive and passive mobilisation for the upper and lower limb, providing patients and healthcare professionals with better conditions for rehabilitation. With 7 degrees of freedom, therapists first define the movement using the device, including Activities of Daily Living or Proprioceptive Neuromuscular Facilitation. The ROBERT® then carries out the intensive therapy for upper and lower extremities either in-bed or seated.

With an additional EMG-triggered Sensing and Stimulation module, ROBERT® can intelligently sense the intent of an immobile patient based on the signals from the muscles, which is combined with Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES). This supports the patient in contracting the weakened muscles, and perform exercises with the ROBERT® as early as possible. Click here to read more about ROBERT®.

Demonstrating the Armeo®Spring Pro

The Armeo®Spring Pro is the latest development in upper limb rehabilitation technology from our partner Hocoma.

With customisable arm weight support, powered by patented TrueG technology, the Armeo®Spring Pro allows patients to receive precise arm weight support from shoulder extension to shoulder flexion. Patients perform a high number of repetitions of grasp and reach movements, taking their therapy to the next level.

The Armeo®Spring Pro enables training of the entire movement chain from the shoulder to the hand. This customisable exoskeleton facilitates personalised therapy by allowing therapists to block specific joints and focus on selective movements

Game-like Augmented Performance Feedback and Virtual Reality exercises motivate to train actively core movement patterns that are commonly used in activities of daily living.
