Corporate Overview

B-TEMIA

Company: Private company, incorporated in January 2009

Target: Leaders in the fast-growing market of Human Enhancement / Augmentation Systems for:

1) Restoration / maintenance / enhancement of locomotioncapability.

2) Prevention and protection against joint injuries.

Product: Motorized knee brace providing biomechanical power for the body lower extremities for the

1) Defence & Security 2) Clinical applications (Health & Safety and Rehabilitation)

Current Issue – Overload Bearing

MILITARY MARKET

Military interveners Carry over 100 lbs of equipment day in day out over 12 - 15-month combat tours leading to:

1. Injury:

• Musculoskeletal injuries lead to about 880,000 visits per year in US Army.

• US Army reports 247,000 (2006) and 257,000 (2007) orthopedic injuries.

• 15% Afghanistan contigent returned home with long-term injuries (Danish Army)

2. Reduced Operational Efficiency

• The mobility of soldiers and troops is jeopardized

• Acute/chronic injured soldiers compromise the integrity of the operation efficiency

3. Increased Costs

• Non-deployable soldiers is a financial challenge for upcoming deployments

• Off-deployed soldiers require therapy & rehabilitation to get back in shape

Knee Stress Release Device (K-SRDTM)

PRODUCT

The K-SRDTM is aBIOMECHATRONIC ORTHOTIC DEVICEdesigned to:

1) Provide ACTIVE support to the lower extremities

2) Assist during typical gait activities

3) Provide additional power to the knee

2) Assist during typical gait activities

3) Provide additional power to the knee

K-SRDTM – Highlights

• Dermoskeleton-type frame design

• Actively counteracts ≈125lbs of load on lower extremities

• Autonomous computer-controlled system

• Human-like behaviour with NO mobility constraints

• Long lasting power autonomy (≈12 hours)

• Electrical generator capability

PRODUCT

K-SRDTM – Functional Benefits

• Reduce fatigue in operation

• Reduce injuries at lower extremities (acute and chronic)

• Maintain the user’s capability to move around

• Increase overall performance

PRODUCT

K-SRDTM – Operational Benefits

• Compatible with current civilian and military vehicles

• Small form factor facilitates air and ground logistical considerations

• Compatible with close-combat situations and operations in confined areas

• Negligible system size & weight does not impact on tactical air lift capacity

• Low impacts on current operation infrastructures

• Low impacts on strategies, time and cost of deployment

• Modular and few-components design

• Low acquisition and maintenance cost

• Combat-ready solution within 12 months

• No ITAR restrictions

Performance Evaluation - Protocol

Title: The Effects of the K-SRDTM on physiological / biomechanical effects using surface electromyography

PI: Dr. David Pearsall, Department of Kinesiology and Physical Education, McGill University

Goal: 1) Determine the effect of the K-SRDTM on knee and ankle muscular activation

2) Approximate physiological work effort by means of heart rate measures

Tests: ▪ With and without additional load (40Kg)

▪ With and without K-SRDTM

▪ Three (3) subjects
