ZeroG Gait and Balance System


- the most sophisticated robotic body-weight support
system in the world.

The ZeroG® Gait and Balance System protects patients from falls while providing dynamic body-weight support as patients practice walking, balance tasks, sit-to-stand and even stairs.  ZeroG is mounted to an overhead track which means there are no barriers between the patient and therapist. With ZeroG, patients can begin rehabilitation in a safe, controlled environment.


Overview

Dynamic Body Weight Support


ZeroG can maintain a consistent level of body-weight support regardless of vertical movements. For example, if the amount of unloading is set to 20%, the patient will always feel 20% lighter even when going from a sitting to standing position.



Safety

ZeroG has advanced fall protection measures which monitor patient movements at 1,000 times per second. ZeroG has been used to train hundreds of thousands of patients since 2008 without a single patient or therapist injury.

User Interface

An intuitive touchscreen or wireless remote are used to operate ZeroG. Each was developed with therapist feedback to ensure a user-friendly design.

Robotic Trolley

The motorized trolley automatically tracks patient movements up to 5 mph. Patients only feel the vertical unloading without any drag from behind.

Patient Setup

Patients are secured into a harness and then connected to ZeroG in under 5 minutes. Settings from previous sessions are easily accessible, so therapy can start immediately.

Features

Advanced Fall Protection


A fall is prevented by setting an allowable range of movement or when a patient descends too fast.


TRiP


TRiP (Training Responses in Postural Rehabilitation) applies controlled perturbations of varying strengths during stationary and walking activities to assist patients in learning how to recover from a loss of balance.



ZeroG Kinetics

ZeroG Kinetics target-matching modules provide patients real-time biofeedback of their movements to challenge postural control and dynamic stability.


Interactive Games

Interactive Games built into the ZeroG software make therapy fun yet cognitively challenging.


Aretech Harness

Aretech Harness for use with Aretech products exclusively. Sizes toddler to 2XL to fit a variety of shapes comfortably.


Session Reporting

Important training data from each session is stored into a secure database that can be exported in various formats.
