MotorSkins: Breaking the Wall to Wearable Robots for Daily Life
We are MotorSkins, producing textiles that come to life. We are developing textile-based wearable robots. Our expertise is morphing textile surfaces with embedded fluidics for well-being, Medtech, Aerospace, Automobile, fashion and VR.
MotorSkins brings textiles to life. In the realm of soft robotics, we design and produce morphing textile surfaces with embedded fluidics. We are a cross-industry technology platform at the intersection of sports, well-being, safety and medical devices. We see textile soft-robotics as a means of achieving simple, elegant and affordable solutions for democratizing the technology. The emerging trend in smart textiles is towards not only sensing capabilities but also reacting and providing feedback. This is where we position ourselves. Compared to other technologies for morphing surfaces, our textiles don’t integrate electronics, which makes them fully washable, easy to produce, scalable, versatile and potentially easier to recycle.
