Nationwide Popup Events for the WIM S Walking Assist Robot

The Japanese subsidiary of Globiz, based in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, has launched its first nationwide popup event showcasing the revolutionary walking assist robot, WIM S. This event commenced on August 5 in Sendai and will continue to major cities, including Nagoya on August 15, following a successful trial in Osaka on July 25, where it attracted a large audience. This initiative is part of an effort to bring the benefits of this cutting-edge technology to communities that want to experience it firsthand.

What is the WIM S?

The WIM S is a lightweight, AI-driven wearable robot designed to assist with walking. At just 1.6 kilograms, it provides personalized support by analyzing a user’s hip movements in real time. The robot has already been a hit globally, with over 10,000 users in seven countries reporting enhanced mobility and confidence in their daily activities.

Addressing Local Needs

In response to growing requests from senior citizens and residents outside urban areas, Globiz has extended these experiences beyond the Tokyo metropolitan region. Attendees can engage in hands-on demonstrations, allowing them to experience the WIM S’s benefits directly. This inclusivity aims to alleviate issues related to reduced mobility and enhance the overall quality of life for seniors, offering them a chance to regain independence and enjoy outdoor activities.
