TEDIRO stands for ThErapy and DIagnosis RObots and is a multiple award-winning tech startup. We are developing the world's first mobile robot for gait training. With this, we want to drive technological change in therapy and 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 our mobile robot THERY. Using camera-based motion capture, our robots analyze the movement sequences of patients and provide them with feedback. To do this, we use proprietary AI as well as AI that is available on the market.

While we initially develop our software applications on the robot platform itself, our platform approach also aims to enable us to offer third-party applications on the robot in the future to cover a broad spectrum of applications.

TEDIRO's goal is to redefine the relationship between humans and robots and to provide healthcare institutions worldwide with technology that helps them to ensure the quality of treatment for their patients, to improve their workflows and to restore or maintain the mobility of their patients for as long as possible.

Our first application, a gait training program using forearm supports, is aimed at patients who have undergone surgery on the lower musculoskeletal system, such as hip or knee surgery, and was developed in collaboration with physiotherapists from Waldkliniken Eisenberg, one of the largest orthopaedic hospitals in Germany. This first application is currently in the process of being launched as a medical device.

Our development partner MetraLabs has many years of experience in the field of mobile robotics and relies on the proprietary navigation CogniDrive, which guarantees particularly robust operation. Our robots are manufactured by MetraLabs according to the configuration of TEDIRO and completed at TEDIRO with the installation of the software applications. In addition, TEDIRO has developed its own cloud-based therapy management system. This system allows, on the one hand, the operation of the robot within the facilities to be configured and, on the other hand, training plans for patients to be created and the results of the training sessions to be documented and exported during the course of the stay.

Our goal is to become a leading global manufacturer of mobile therapy and diagnostic robots and to develop innovative medical products that are intuitive to use. We are supported on this journey by a broad-based team that covers the areas of robotics, computer vision & AI, cloud-based software development and physiotherapy. TEDIRO also holds an extensive portfolio of industrial property rights.

The company was originally spun off from MetraLabs and Ilmenau University of Technology by Anke Mayfarth and Dr. Christian Sternitzke and is based in Ilmenau and Leipzig, Germany.
