A Platform Technology
How AURAFLEX Works
A proprietary light active polymer is layered with a light emitting layer. When activated, the polymer absorbs the photonic energy and is converted to mechanical movement, making a photonic muscle.
Module Design
Thin, Flexible and Lightweight
The two layers have a thickness of less than 3mm.
The polymer possesses elastic properties, and the light layer is designed on a flexible base.
Consequently, the thin design and flexible construction result in remarkable versatility.
Simple Integration
Plug & Play
Designed for easy integration with attachments and features a USB-C port for power. Its silent operation makes it suitable for discreet solutions where undetectable audible motion is advantageous.
Transformation
Next Generation of Movement
The potential to revolutionize humanoid robotics with a slim, silent, lightweight, and high force-to-weight actuator is incredibly promising. This breakthrough opens up a wide range of applications across various industries, including wearables, aerospace, automotive, and medical technologies.
