Independence.

Creating the next generation of portable assistive devices for care without boundaries.

UrsaLift Sneak Peak

The Intersection of
Care & Kinematics

For decades, patient transfer technology has remained static—anchored to ceilings or bulky floor units. This stagnation has created a world where accessibility ends at the front door.

At Niebotech, we refuse to accept that safety must come at the cost of freedom. By leveraging advanced technology and materials, we are developing the next generation of assistive devices.

Safety First

Rigorous adherence to ISO 10535 & IEC 60601 standards for hoist safety.

Active Deployment

Rapid-response mechanisms for on-demand patient support.

Human Centered

Designed for the caregiver's back and the patient's dignity.

Proprietary Technology

PROJECT URSALIFT

Solving the "Portability Gap" in home healthcare.

The Problem

Current lift solutions are are either safe but immovable (ceiling/floor lifts), or portable but unsafe (manual lifting). This often isolates patients in their homes.

The Vision

A high-strength, ultra-compact deployable architecture. UrsaLift is engineered to fit the footprint of a standard travel bag,and deploy in under 60 seconds.

Concept Design Stealth R&D Phase 0

Schematics Classified

Detailed mechanical architecture available to qualified partners under NDA.

Augmentation Pipeline

PROJECT URSAEXO

Reducing cumulative load.
Preserving the caregiver.

Soft-Robotic Augmentation

While UrsaLift manages the heavy transfer, caregivers still face cumulative spinal stress from micro-tasks: repositioning patients in bed, hygiene assistance, etc.

UrsaExo is a proposed wearable exoskeleton used to offload much of the to forces caregivers may experience during repetitive bending.

PHASE 0 STATUS

Technical Focus

  • Compliant textile actuators
  • Zero-latency intent detection
  • Infection-control compliant
