Genrobotics has recently launched its new robotic gait trainer, ‘G-Gaiter,’ for the healthcare segment to aid faster recovery from gait disabilities. G-Gaiter aims to give the perfect solution to the problems with the traditional gait training method.

With these new developments, the company is pushing ahead a global business expansion venture, with initial advancement projects in India and the United Kingdom.

Dr.Nitha noted G-Gaiter’s AI-powered natural human gait pattern and rehabilitation functions can increase the consistency and quality of gait patterns. The functionality of the G-Gaiter enables medical professionals to creatively tailor therapy to each patient’s particular needs in order to assist them in Neurorehabilitation while also saving time and effort.

G-Gaiter was built with cutting-edge technology. G-AI-powered gaiter’s natural human gait pattern improves efficiency, increases the mobility, stability, and quality of patient’s walking training steps, and creatively tailors the therapy system to each patient’s unique needs. Professionals’ time will also be saved by deploying the robot, Dr.Nitha added.
