Watch Laura in Action With Her Kinova® Jaco® Assistive Robotic Arm

Spend a day in the life of 16-year old Laura and her life-changing Kinova® Jaco® assistive robotic arm, and learn her story. Laura was born with spinal muscular atrophy and needs a power wheelchair to get around, but has very limited upper-body mobility. Now, thanks to her Jaco assistive robot, she is the world’s most independent person in a disabled body, according to her mom Crista. Kinova’s assistive technology supports people affected by a vast array of conditions (ALS, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, muscular dystrophy, rheumatism, spinal muscular atrophy, stroke, tetraplegia) and injuries (general back and shoulder pain, repetitive strain, spinal cord injuries), as well as natural deterioration due to aging. Regardless of whether you’re old or young, female or male, or the degree to which you require assistance, our solutions are adaptable to your situation and your environment. -- Learn more about Jaco: Request a demo or m
