History
[ edit ]
In 2006, Charles Deguire and Louis-Joseph L'Écuyer founded Kinova as an independent manufacturer of robotic devices.[5] [6] Deguire's uncle was an inventor who created a manipulator for his wheelchair, which became the basis for the company to create the robotic arms.[7] By 2009, Kinova had introduced a robotic arm that could fit onto any standard wheelchair and allow users to feed themselves.[8] [9]
From 2016 to 2018, Kinova expanded its operations, opening offices in Germany and China .[10] [11] In 2017, Kinova announced that it had raised $25 million in funding backed by investors KTB Network, BDC Venture Capital, Fonds Manufacturier Québécois and Foxconn Technology Group .[12] [13] [14] Later in the year, the company collaborated and partnered with McGill University to increase their collaborative research involving medical, surgical and assistive robotics.[15]
Products
[ edit ]
Kinova produces the Jaco Assistive robotic arm, a six-axis robotic manipulator arm with a two- or three-finger hand to improve the life of people with mobility issues.[16] [17] [18]
Kinova also provides accessories such as arm grippers, actuators and controllers .[19] [20]
