To improve the limits of human performance and safety, allowing people to perform better for longer.
Whilst large-scale warehouses are beginning to replace human laborers with robotics, this is not an affordable option for the majority. However, intensive labor jobs at warehouses can, unfortunately, be damaging to the human back, hips, and body in general, presenting massive demand for innovations that can make their job easier.
Verve Motions develops a “one size fits most” safety exosuit for labor-intensive industries, a wearable technology that leverages advanced robotics, apparel design, and motion tracking to remove 30% of strain when conducting physically strenuous tasks. The company claims the exosuit supports the back and hips, improves lifting form, and lowers fatigue and soreness, ultimately improving worker safety and work quality.
While people may critique Verve Motions’ technology for its potential to be intrusive in the workplace, the company claims that its exosuits take 30 seconds to put on, only activate when assistance is needed, and are as comfortable as regular clothes. Through this innovation, the company shows great potential to disrupt the market by improving worker safety and satisfaction while simultaneously boosting their productivity and endurance. Series B funding awarded in 2023 will go some way towards the company's goals of market expansion and scaling its manufacturing.
