Recent highlights

ABLE Human Motion received two distinctions at the EIT Innovation Awards on Nov 25, 2025, winning the EIT Venture Award and the Public Award. The recognition adds external validation to its focus on robotic mobility devices for wheelchair users and neurorehabilitation. The company also expanded its team to 35 people during 2025, indicating continued investment in engineering, clinical, production, and commercial capabilities rather than a contractionary operating phase. Its intellectual-property activity remained active: a patent publication dated Jun 12, 2025 covers control of a powered lower-limb exoskeleton during sit-to-stand movement. Earlier filings address a backdrivable exoskeleton actuator and systems for entering, exiting, and displaying information during assisted walking. Together, these developments suggest that ABLE is extending beyond a single wearable device into the control, actuation, and user-interface layers required for practical deployment.
