The investment from Keying Investment (珠海科溋投资), Lenovo Capital and Incubator(联想创投) and Dening Insutrial (浙江德宁实业) will help improve technology research, products update and marketing, said Chen Gong (陈功), CEO of the start-up established in September 2016.

The company’s products include Exoskeleton Robot for Lower Limb Rehabilitation BEAR-H1, Lumbar exoskeleton PB-1,  Hand Rehabilitation Exoskeleton Robot and Treadmill-Based Rehabilitation Robot MoonWalker.
