In 2019, PowerON obtained some venture investment support, and received an EXIST Business Start-Up Grant operations started in July. In 2017, Markus joined the Institute for Semiconductors and Microsystems at the TU Dresden and started developing soft tactile arrays for robotic applications. Our early days date back to 2015 when our now CEO, Markus Henke, our CTO, Katie Wilson, our COO, Ross Green, and our Chief Scientist, Iain Anderson, came together at the Biomimetics Lab at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute to develop soft electronics for soft robotics. We have many years experience with smart, soft materials, biomimetics and soft robotics. PowerON was founded in 2019 in Auckland, New Zealand, with a branch in Dresden, Germany. We are PowerON, offering smart soft sensor and actuator solutions for robotics and interfacing technologies. Talk to us if you share our vision and let us find out how we can collaborate.
But at PowerON we are working hard on the foundational technology to realize this soon. Where prosthetics don’t hurt after an entire day of wear and feel like natural limbs where patients will be supported by biomimetic robots that are accepted as real helpers, not cold, unfriendly, machinery and when it becomes a habit to communicate with your smart environment through gentle touch as well as voice and gestures, and your devices will give you similar feedback. We see a future where everyone makes use of intelligent robots and soft devices in daily life, at work and at home where physicians, physiotherapists and nurses can train with life-like models of the human body PowerON’s proprietary technology opens up new products and applications, not only in robotics, but in automation, e-commerce, agritech, medical and more. Soft, friendly, lifelike robots with a sense of touch can more naturally interact with users and their environment.
We believe soft, multifunctional structures will revolutionize the way we think about robots and their future uses.
