Microgravity Treadmill
Differential air-pressure antigravity treadmill technology originated from research conducted at NASA Ames Research Center focused on mitigating bone loss and muscle atrophy experienced by astronauts during long-duration spaceflight. The technology uses controlled air-pressure differentials applied around the lower body to simulate changes in effective body weight during treadmill exercise. By applying force near the user’s center of…
Neurala Brain
Neurala developed a brain-inspired artificial intelligence technology designed to enable autonomous, continuous learning on edge devices. The commercialized technology, delivered through the Neurala Brain and Neurala VIA (Visual Inspection Automation) software platforms, allows machines to learn new visual concepts during operation without cloud connectivity or large, pre-labeled training datasets.
