Aergo

United Kingdom

Aergo was created to be the world’s most adaptable postural support system. It uses a network of patent-pending air cells to support individuals of all ages and needs. The app-controlled system provides adjustable pressure-relief for a range of physical conditions and is the first device of its kind that enables clinicians to provide remote postural care. Among the benefits Aergo will be able to offer are an increase in independence for wheelchair users and the mitigation of risk of back pain in the likes of office workers and truck drivers. Aergo’s product vision will incorporate Artificial Intelligence to heighten the technology’s ability to track, predict and prevent musculoskeletal diseases. Promoting comfort and protect the health of every individual by adapting to positional changes automatically and effortlessly.
