Category:News|Publishing : March 4, 2015


Non-powered walk assistance device "ACSIVE" was broadcast across Asia on Channel Japan.
"ACSIVE" is a product which Prof. Akihito Sano of Nagoya Institute of Technology and IMSEN Engineering Corporation collaboratively developed based on no-powered passive walkers. It doesn't require the use of electricity nor motor, but is powered by a cam spring mechanism and it thus only about 500g in weight.

You can watch the broadcasts through online streaming as below;
1) TV Tokyo TV Program "World Business Satellite" with English interpretation (11:30~)
2) TBS TV Program "Japanese Dream" with English interpretation (17:42)
3) Super Welfare EXPO held in Tokyo from November 12-18, 2014 (4:00~)
