"The fact that Carbonhand now is approved and becoming available in Europe is a big step both for us as a company and for all the people who live with impaired hand function around the world." says Petter Bäckgren, CEO at Bioservo and continues, "our next step is to make Carbonhand available also to everyone with impaired hand function in the US, preparations are underway and our goal is for it to take place as early as next year." The system learns what the user does and adapts the behavior to the user's needs. Sensors in the fingertips register when the user grips an object, the system calculates how much force to add and pulls on artificial tendons that go out into the fingers of the hand and add force to the user's grip. The grip-strengthening glove Carbonhand from Bioservo gives people with reduced hand function extra strength and endurance in their grip. We currently have distributors in Norway, Germany, France and Switzerland and we continue to gradually expand the sales network to more markets in Europe. In the Swedish market, the company conducts direct sales, and in other markets in In Europe, the company works via specialized distributors with relevant expertise and market presence. Bioservo can now start sales to distributors and end users within the EU as well as the countries that accept UE-MDR as a regulatory approval in their market.
