PSYONIC

PSYONIC manufactures the Ability Hand, a touch-sensing bionic prosthetic hand designed for upper-limb amputees and robotic applications. The Ability Hand features multi-touch sensory feedback, enabling users to feel what they are grasping—a first-to-market capability. The device closes in 0.2 seconds, making it 2x faster than competing bionic hands on the market. Weighing 490 grams (approximately 20% lighter than the average human hand), the Ability Hand is water-resistant and engineered to withstand blunt force impact without damage. The hand utilizes a patented motor control and sensory feedback system that provides intuitive, responsive control with a shallow learning curve. PSYONIC positions the Ability Hand as a cost-effective alternative to comparable prosthetics, pricing it at roughly one-quarter to one-half the cost of similar devices while maintaining coverage under Medicare and most private insurance plans. The company manufactures in the United States and provides direct support to users. The Ability Hand serves both human prosthetic users and robotic applications, with partnerships and deployments across major technology companies (Meta, Google, Amazon, NASA), automotive manufacturers (Toyota, Mercedes-Benz), academic institutions (MIT, UC Berkeley, UCSD), and healthcare organizations (Shirley Ryan AbilityLab, UCSF). The product represents a significant advancement in prosthetic technology by combining speed, sensory feedback, durability, and affordability in a single platform.
