SKYWALKER

Skywalker develops a wearable ultrasonic sensor system that reads movements and translates them into instructions. This level of gestural control provides dexterity and ease of use to exoskeletal devices, robots, gaming, VR, smart home operation, prosthetics operation, and possibly medical imaging and diagnostics. In the next phases, Skywalker will optimize its algorithms to extract meaningful semantic information from users’ muscle movements, gathering a large data set from multiple users. The company will also develop an application that allows an individual to control discrete finger movements on a robotic prosthetic in real-time.
