Previously hosted in cities including Zürich, Spain, London, Rotterdam
and Toronto, this event has successfully garnered thousands of participants
globally. Now, for the first time, RehabWeek is debuting in Singapore, Asia. This
marks a pivotal moment in the region’s rehabilitation technology field, positioning
Asia as a global hub for rehabilitative technology and care.
Specialising in robotics & AI for
rehabilitation, Fourier Intelligence showcased its comprehensive array
of rehabilitation technology, ranging from upper and lower limbs to movement
and balance solutions. Highlights include the award-winning ArmMotus™ EMU and ExoMotus™ M4. With a
global presence and over 2,000 installations worldwide, Fourier Intelligence

Adding
to its inventory of advanced rehabilitation solutions, Fourier Intelligence
also launched the MetaMotus™ Galileo, its latest rehabilitation platform.
Featuring biomechanical analysis capabilities, it combines both virtual reality
and robotics to create a revolutionary platform that enables users with
different needs to train in an immersive environment.

Functioning
as an open platform that accommodates customised protocols, it provides for a
dynamic range of rehabilitation methods. These encompass robotics-assisted
training for upper and lower limbs, wheelchair training, dynamic balance
training, prosthetic adaption, and gait retraining. Its advanced Galileo X
processor also allows for exposure therapy for PTSD and real-time multimodal
data analysis. This fosters a comprehensive rehabilitation ecosystem that readily
empowers therapists to develop new protocols and treatments for patient
applications.
“RehabWeek
2023 is an excellent platform to network, collaborate and learn from experts in
the industry. While providing Fourier Intelligence the opportunity to showcase
its products to the world, it also allows us to drive innovation in the
industry through continuous collaboration. It is a momentous moment for us here
in Asia, as we not only witness one of the largest rehab tech conference and
exhibition coming to Singapore, but also playing a part in organising RehabWeek
2023. With the support of the Deputy Prime Minister of Singapore and Singapore
government, it solidifies our direction in developing robotic and AI driven
technology and allow for rapid adoption throughout Asia. Through this, we can
push the limits of rehabilitation technology and allow for rapid empowerment of
both therapists and patients.” said Zen Koh, Co-Founder & Global CEO of
Fourier Intelligence.
He
further added: “We understand the challenges therapists and patients face;
thus, we strive to provide the best solutions to combat these and empower them
to yield better recovery results. The launch of our MetaMotus™ Galileo is
testament to our continuous efforts to research, refinement and development of
new platforms and devices for the overall well-being of patients. Collaboration
is vital for the industry to move forward; thus, I am confident that with the
MetaMotus™ Galileo and its open platform, we can empower and drive innovation
for the betterment of the industry and humanity.
The
week-long (24 to 28 September) event saw a variety of industry-driven
activities, such as an investor forum, scientific programmes, global workshops,
and keynote lectures from renowned experts. Fourier Intelligence also organised
an industry workshop titled: “The Spectrum of Gait Training”, which focuses on
the latest advancements in gait rehabilitation technology. The company is committed
to revolutionising the industry with various advances in the field through
active collaborations and education.
