Core offering

Bioness Medical develops and manufactures prescription-based medical devices for neurorehabilitation, including functional electrical stimulation (FES) systems for foot drop, thigh weakness, and hand impairment; ceiling-mounted robotic body weight support systems; and software/VR-based therapy platforms. Products are sold to and prescribed by clinicians at rehabilitation hospitals, clinics, and therapy centers for use by patients recovering from stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, and orthopedic conditions. The company also provides clinician training (Bioness Academy) and patient-facing mobile applications.

Product overview

Bioness Medical develops a comprehensive neurorehabilitation platform comprising neuromodulation systems, robotic systems, and software-based therapy programs. The core product portfolio includes functional electrical stimulation (FES) devices for foot drop (L300 Go), thigh weakness (L360), and hand rehabilitation (H200 Wireless); body weight support systems (Vector, Haloplex); upper-extremity exoskeleton (AURA); and therapy software platforms (BITS, BITS Functional Reality). The products are designed to work both independently and together as an integrated rehabilitation ecosystem, supported by clinical training through Bioness Academy and mobile applications. The April 2026 acquisition of the PoNS System expanded capabilities into non-invasive central neuromodulation via tongue stimulation, enabling clinicians to address both peripheral motor activation and central neural network modulation within a unified rehabilitation approach.

Products and services

• L300 Go System A functional electrical stimulation (FES) system prescribed by clinicians that provides ankle dorsiflexion for foot drop and knee flexion/extension for thigh weakness. Uses proprietary 3D motion detection with adaptive learning algorithm to detect gait events and deliver stimulation across varying walking speeds, stairs, ramps, and uneven terrain. Indicated for users with foot drop and thigh weakness from stroke, traumatic brain injury, multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, and incomplete spinal cord injury.
• L360 Thigh System A neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) and functional electrical stimulation (FES) device that assists knee flexion or extension for muscle weakness. Uses 3D motion detection to deploy stimulation in three modes: FES gait, cycle training, and NMES training. Indicated for post-surgical quadriceps/hamstring weakness, muscle atrophy prevention, and knee instability after total knee replacement or ACL reconstruction.
• H200 Wireless Hand Rehabilitation System A wireless functional electrical stimulation system for hand rehabilitation that supports the wrist in a functioning position while stimulating nerves and muscles in the forearm and hand to improve hand function. Indicated for stroke survivors, traumatic brain injury patients, and others with impaired reaching, grasping, pinching, and opening/closing of the hand.
• Vector Gait and Safety System A ceiling-mounted robotic body weight support system that provides dynamic body weight support (DBWS) to minimize fall risk for rehabilitation patients. Features 500 lbs patient weight capacity, active body control fall protection, up to 200 lbs body weight support, and movement detection mirroring patient movement 1000 times per second for immediate responsiveness. Used in clinical rehabilitation settings for gait and overground training.
• BITS (Bioness Integrated Therapy System) A software-based therapy platform for rehabilitation facilities that challenges, assesses, and tracks a patient's deficiencies in vision, cognition, motor, and balance through an interactive touchscreen display. Offers over 60 multidisciplinary programs designed to improve clinical utility, patient engagement, and clinician efficiency.
• BITS Functional Reality (BITS FR) An immersive virtual reality, mixed reality, and functional reality rehabilitation system that works with Head-Mounted Displays (HMDs) to provide virtual environments for upper-extremity rehabilitation exercises. Supports occupational therapy, physical therapy, and speech therapy through interactive exercises in everyday simulated environments. Launched October 2025.
• PoNS (Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator) System A non-invasive central neuromodulation device that delivers stimulation via the tongue to modulate central neural networks. Acquired from Helius Medical Technologies in April 2026 and added to Bioness's portfolio to complement its peripheral functional electrical stimulation platform with a dual-front neuromodulation approach for treating complex neurological conditions.
• Bioness Academy A comprehensive virtual training platform that supports clinicians in advancing their expertise in neurorehabilitation. Offers self-paced web-based courses, a resource library with product-specific guides and best practice materials, and on-demand webinars led by expert faculty for clinicians seeking continuing education.

• Helius Medical TechnologiescoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 9 April 2026Bioness Medical acquired the Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator (PoNS) System product line from Helius Medical Technologies. The acquisition combines Bioness's peripheral functional electrical stimulation platform with PoNS's central brain stimulation technology via tongue, creating a dual-front neuromodulation approach for treating complex neurological conditions.

Scale indicators11 records

Recent moves6 records

Emerging players

• MindMaze: MindMaze builds digital neurotherapeutics and VR/MR platforms for neurological recovery and assessment. Comparable as a competitor in the immersive VR/MR rehabilitation space where Bioness has launched BITS Functional Reality.
• ReWalk Robotics: ReWalk Robotics develops wearable robotic exoskeletons for individuals with spinal cord injury and other mobility impairments. Comparable as a focused exoskeleton competitor targeting overlapping neurological rehabilitation indications.

Direct peers

• Tyromotion: Tyromotion develops robotic and sensor-based rehabilitation devices for upper and lower extremities used in clinical therapy. Comparable because it competes with Bioness's Vector, AURA, and H200 in the robotic and FES-assisted rehabilitation market.
• Saebo: Saebo is a direct competitor in the upper-extremity and hand rehabilitation device space, offering functional orthoses and electrical stimulation products for stroke and neurological recovery. Comparable because both companies sell clinical FES/orthotic devices to rehabilitation facilities and home users.
• AlterG: AlterG manufactures anti-gravity treadmills using differential air pressure for body weight support during rehab. Comparable because AlterG directly competes with Bioness's Vector system in body weight-supported gait training for neurological and orthopedic patients.
• Ekso Bionics: Ekso Bionics builds wearable robotic exoskeletons for medical and industrial use, including the EksoNR for stroke and brain injury rehabilitation. Directly comparable as a developer of exoskeleton and robotic rehab devices targeting similar neurological patient populations.
• Hocoma (part of DIH): Hocoma develops robotic and sensor-based devices for rehabilitation, including the Lokomat and Armeo product lines. Comparable because Hocoma directly competes with Bioness's Vector (gait/body weight support) and AURA (upper-extremity exoskeleton) products in the same clinical rehab channels.
• Restorative Therapies: Restorative Therapies makes FES-based cycling and therapy systems (RT300, Xcite) for neurological rehabilitation in clinical and home settings. Comparable as a direct FES device competitor serving similar stroke, MS, and spinal cord injury patient populations.

Broad incumbents

• Ottobock: Ottobock is a global leader in prosthetics, orthotics, and rehabilitation technology with a broad medical device portfolio. Comparable as a much larger incumbent operating in the same orthopedic and rehabilitation space, including FES-adjacent orthotic products for mobility-impaired patients.

Others

• Helius Medical Technologies: Helius Medical Technologies developed the PoNS (Portable Neuromodulation Stimulator) System, which Bioness acquired in April 2026. Relevant as a related party and former product originator whose technology now sits inside Bioness's platform.
