New Delhi, Aug 9 (UNI) IIT Delhi incubated startup Flexmotiv launched all-terrain, slip-resistant crutches called Felxmo for the disabled and elderly on Friday.
"Flexmo is a 21st-century crutch that empowers the divyangjan by providing enhanced mobility with one-of-a-kind technical features. It is the world’s first self-standing axillary crutch, reduces the jarring forces in use from 5 to 10% while walking and improves the user performance by 10-20% as compared to traditional crutches," said Flexmotiv Co-founder Srinivas Adepu.
He further added Flexmo improves the surface adaptability of traditional crutches, which are limited to the point of being unusable on uneven surfaces.
