FloatEVO, evolution of the previous version FLOAT, is a wearable robotic medical device for scapular and shoulder complexes and elbow mobilization. Thanks to its tilting system, it can be used for the rehabilitation of both left and right arms.
It was designed to promote and accelerate motor and functional recovery of the shoulder and elbow joint complex, for post-traumatic or post-surgical orthopedic patients but also for neurological patients.
