Bio Robotics Group



 

Introduction

The Bio-Robotics group is the pioneer of EMG & EEG controlled prosthetics in the country. The groups aim to develop prosthetics, bio-inspired robotics, various classifiers for medical diagnostics, hospital equipment, and other aids which help improve quality of life. Various projects have been converted into products –some of the well-known ones include MyoBionicsand Sole.
