Abracadabra’s first product will be applied to

post-stroke rehabilitation in the US Market

http://www.prweb.com/releases/2014/01/prweb11471125.htm

suffer strokes every year

759,000 people

spent on informal care given at home

6$ billion

The rehabilitation robot market is expected to reach

1.8$ billion by 2020

Each year, stroke care costs add up to

43$ billion

nationwide with another




Telemedicineconnection included

We suggest Social Assistive Robot as unique solution for post-stroke rehabilitation at home: Effective and engaging rehab training sessions with robots, combined with multi-disciplinary knowledge (physiotherapist, psychologist, occupational therapist, speech therapist)

Cost-effectivefor only 450$ per month first year, 240$ per month second year




Human-robot interaction: patient interacts with the robot, playing "therapeutically games". For instance, the patient move and grasp a cup of tea. The cup has embedded sensor and transmit the data describing the patient movement to the robot. The robot gets the data, interpreters it and automatically create appropriate response (e.g. feedback, joke, next excesses or express emotions)

Remote guidance:telemdicine system allows the physical therapist to convey tasks to the robot. The same communication channel allows the robot to transmit statistics and progress reports back to the therapis

How does it work?

Abracadabra’s vision:

To create personal humanoid low-cost robotic platformwith rich real-time machine-user interaction for SAR




To create social interaction and emotional support

we develop Library includes:

Algorithm for recognition and Interpretation of user activities:Based on voice/speech recognition, face expression of emotions and body actions, movement and expression of emotions

Algorithms for synthetize of the robot expression and reaction:Based on voice/speech, face and bodily expression

Development of efficient human-robot social interaction: Motivation and feedback Adaptation to user interaction style, to style of the learning, and to the user progress etc.



we developed a set of external tools with embedded sensors (smart dumbbells, cups, pads, etc.) that create a smart environment for each session, thus enabling real-time interaction with zero margin of error

connected devices

and for that makes the training themost unique interaction ever

ased on the concept of

real-time collection and analysis of users actions

Abracadabra presents a new breakthrough concept for



Abracadabra

Development Status

Starting the process of preparing the Horizon 2020 grant with Tel-ha-Shomer The Largest Israeli Hospital

Appling and getting "Tnufa" small Israel Chief Scientist’s Grant. Currently, we work on:Development of the demo (some parts of the robot)

2 provisions Design of full robot

Developing the concept and the design

Signed a cooperation agreementwith RobotsLAB USfor subcontractingto production




The opportunity:

raising pre-seed We need to raise $600,000 (of $1 million)The money will give us a long runway, enable us to hire outstanding algorithm developers and engineers, and bring this from design to Alpha Prototype (including a set of 12 rehab training sessions) in the year
