Capsix Robotics has made significant strides in the field of medical-grade robotics with the introduction of the iYU massage robot. Designed to meet the rigorous demands of safety, sensitivity, and precision required for direct interaction with the human body, the iYU provides fully automated wellness treatments.
The innovation lies in its ability to analyse individual body geometry, adapting in real-time using a closed-loop control system. This system allows for precise regulation of motion trajectories and contact forces, ensuring consistent pressure application tailored to diverse users.
A pivotal component of the iYU’s success is the integration of the LBR Med platform. This sensitive and collaborative robotic platform has been specifically crafted for medical environments and facilitates close human-robot interaction. With the support of an intelligent software stack, iYU enables real-time sensing, compliant motion with controlled force regulation, and precise positioning, ensuring effective pressure distribution.
Operating the iYU is streamlined through a user-friendly touchscreen interface, converting complex robotics and control algorithms into a simple, reliable user experience. This innovation highlights how medical-grade robotic technologies can be successfully transferred to adjacent sectors without compromising standards.
Capsix Robotics aims to demonstrate that their technologies, known for precision, reliability, and human-centred design, can extend beyond traditional medical contexts to revolutionise wellness treatments.
