Prosthetic legs are foot modules designed for people with partial ankle or full foot amputation, while preserving the soft tissue in the heel area. These are the first prosthetic legs in the “Motorics” line.
The company also showed off a new line of prosthetic hands: some models have updated silicone finger pads, added a finger guard, and a multi-grip version of the mechanical prosthesis has been installed on traction prostheses.
In addition, Motorika presented a sensor system for prostheses, a vagus nerve neurostimulator, verticalization technology for lower limb paraparesis, and deep brain stimulation. The company intends to implement these developments in the coming years.
All the new features were presented at the Motoriconf’24 event organised by the company.
In 2023, Motorika placed bonds worth 300 million rubles on the Moscow Stock Exchange. The funds were raised against the backdrop of plans to develop leg prostheses, which the company announced earlier.
In June 2024, Motorika attracted an investment of 900 million rubles to develop a digital ecosystem for users of the company’s products and its partners. According to a representative of Motorika, the company plans to hold an IPO in 2026.
