TEDIRO stands for Therapy and Diagnostics Robot and develops health apps (including medical devices) that run on mobile service robots (and, in the future, on humanoid robots as well). Our first product is an application for gait training using forearm supports—and according to our research, the robot equipped with this app is the first autonomously navigating therapy robot to be certified as a medical device. With this, we aim to drive technological change in therapy and, as a provider of physical AI, shape the market for robotics in healthcare.

Our focus is on developing software applications for therapy and diagnostics that can be used by medical staff to mobilize their patients on the THERY mobile robot, as well as to support staff in long-term care. We use camera-based motion capture so that the robots can analyze patients’ movements and provide them with feedback. To do this, we utilize both proprietary and commercially available AI.

While we are initially developing our software applications on the THERY robot platform, our platform approach also aims to enable us to offer third-party applications on this robot as well as on other robots from future partners in the future, in order to cover a broad spectrum of applications.

TEDIRO’s goal is to redefine the relationship between humans and robots and to equip healthcare facilities worldwide with technologies that help them ensure the quality of care for their patients, improve their workflows, and maintain or restore the mobility of their patients or residents for as long as possible.

Our first application, THERY UAG, for gait training using forearm crutches is designed for patients who have undergone surgery on the lower musculoskeletal system, such as hip or knee surgery. This application was developed in collaboration with physiotherapists at Waldkliniken Eisenberg, one of the largest orthopedic hospitals in Germany. This first application is now available as a medical device within the EU. Our second application, THERY GO, enables assistive-device-independent gait training.

Our partner MetraLabs manufactures the robot platform according to our technical specifications and has many years of experience in mobile robotics. The proprietary CogniDrive navigation technology ensures particularly robust operation. Once TEDIRO has put its own applications into operation on the platform, the base unit supplied by MetraLabs becomes our THERY.

In addition to providing various training applications, TEDIRO has developed its own cloud-based therapy management system. This system enables, on the one hand, the configuration of the robot’s operation within facilities and, on the other hand, the creation of training plans for patients as well as the documentation and export of training session results during their stay.

Our goal is to become the world’s leading provider of mobile therapy and diagnostic applications for mobile service robots and to develop innovative, intuitive medical devices. TEDIRO also holds an extensive portfolio of intellectual property rights.
