Vulcan Augmetics
|
Vulcan Augmetics is a Vietnam based startup making affordable, modular robotic prosthetics that can be ordered online and click together as easily as lego, with the long term goal of being the worlds largest brand for upgrading the human body. We are all about building people, both mentally and physically, using technology to maximise what peoplecan achieve. We believe that the closer we are to our technology, the more effective we can be, and so our goal is to make body mounted technology as affordable, convenient and accessible as possible. Prosthetics users are the best starting place and example as they are using body mounted technology already, every single day, and are ideal to help us develop and drive the technology further. If you can build a device to fit over a human-form prosthetic, then it just a matter of time before you can miniaturise and put the same device onto the human body directly. We are all about building people, both mentally and physically, using technology to maximise what people can achieve. Our first phase involves building a range of modular, easily upgradeable prosthetics which we will sell both B2B and B2C, with the modularity making our product easier, more cost effective, and practical to maintain than our competitors. We design extra modules and attachments to help our users regain employment, and sell them upgrades and replacements over time. Longer term we will expand from prosthetics into all types of wearables, from diagnostic and health devices such as Fitbit to AR and VR control systems, all of which can be built over our initial prosthetics technology platform. We will also be expanding our online platform to allow all users to order interoperable products, and late on to connect with designers and local manufacturing facilities which will enable us to also take a role as a royalty generating marketplace. | Seed / Oct 11, 2023 | |
