Synslai Technology: Bilateral Training Platform

Synslai addresses a critical rehabilitation challenge: restoring hand and upper limb function following neuromuscular and musculoskeletal injuries affecting motor control. Hand function underpins activities of daily living—feeding, dressing, grooming, writing, using communication devices—making upper limb recovery essential for independence and community participation.

The Synslai system is a medical-grade bilateral upper limb training platform designed specifically for patients with impaired arm motor function. The device enables the unaffected arm to guide the affected arm through synchronized bilateral movements on an X-Y plane platform, utilizing mirror therapy principles to facilitate motor recovery through unaffected limb-guided movement patterns. This approach promotes neuroplasticity and motor relearning through repetitive, task-specific training.

Traditional mirror therapy employs a vertically positioned mirror to separate patients' arms—the affected limb hidden from view behind the reflective surface, while the unaffected limb performs movements on the visible side. Patients observe their healthy limb's reflection appearing precisely where their impaired limb actually rests, creating the compelling illusion that both arms move symmetrically. This visual feedback can facilitate motor recovery by engaging the brain and reestablishing neural connections through perceived bilateral movement.

However, traditional implementation faces practical limitations: maintaining precise mirror positioning throughout therapy sessions, ensuring consistent therapy protocols across different patients and clinicians, quantifying patient progress objectively beyond subjective observation, and integrating seamlessly into busy clinical workflows where therapists manage multiple patients with diverse conditions.

Synslai addresses these challenges through engineered solutions that preserve mirror therapy's neuroplasticity benefits while adding precision, measurement capabilities, and clinical usability. Synslai supports proximal upper limb rehabilitation—focusing on shoulder, elbow, and arm movements—while helping patients regain functional independence in daily activities through structured, repeatable training protocols.

"Upper limb rehabilitation benefits from diverse therapeutic approaches addressing different recovery dimensions—motor execution, sensory integration, neuroplastic facilitation, functional task practice. Synslai strengthens our capacity to offer evidence-based mirror therapy within comprehensive care frameworks where multiple modalities work together, with Synslai focusing on proximal upper limb coordination while complementary technologies address other upper limb function," said Even Koh, Group General Manager, Robotimize Group.


Strategic Partnership: Formalizing Collaborative Excellence

The memorandum of understanding between MotusAcademy and Rehabotics, signed by Zen Koh, Strategic Advisor at Robotimize Group, and Prof. Charles Huang of Rehabotics, with virtual witness from Dr. Pei Yu-Cheng of Rehabotics and Prof. Denny Oetomo, Co-Founder and CTO of Robotimize Group, formalizes strategic collaboration advancing safe, evidence-based, dexterity-focused neurorehabilitation globally.

The partnership structure reflects ACE™ philosophy—curated collaborations built on shared values rather than transactional relationships. Both organizations prioritize clinical excellence, evidence-based practice, patient-centered innovation, product quality and safety, and commitment to continuous improvement based on clinical feedback and emerging research.

This values alignment matters practically. Rehabilitation technology partnerships succeed when both parties maintain rigorous safety standards, invest in clinical validation, support healthcare providers comprehensively, and continuously refine products based on real-world implementation experiences. Companies cutting corners on quality, overpromising clinical benefits, or abandoning customers post-sale undermine the entire rehabilitation technology field by eroding clinician and patient trust.

Rehabotics' commitment to working closely with clinical partners throughout product development resonates with Robotimize's own collaborative approach. Effective rehabilitation technologies emerge from iterative dialogue between engineers understanding technical possibilities and clinicians understanding patient needs, workflow constraints, and outcome priorities. This participatory development process produces systems more likely to achieve sustained clinical adoption.

Prof. Denny Oetomo's involvement in formalizing the partnership reflects Robotimize's commitment to ensuring that ACE™ collaborations meet rigorous technical and clinical standards. As both technology developer and academic researcher, Prof. Oetomo brings critical perspective on evaluating rehabilitation technologies—examining not just marketing claims but actual evidence, understanding engineering trade-offs, and assessing whether innovations genuinely advance clinical practice.

"Rehabotics demonstrates the engineering rigor and clinical collaboration that ACE™ partnerships require. Their focus on translating neuroplasticity research into practical tools, commitment to evidence-based development, and emphasis on dexterity and functional outcomes align with the standards we maintain across our technology portfolio," said Prof. Denny Oetomo, Co-Founder and CTO, Robotimize Group.


Clinical Demonstrations: Showcasing Synslai's Rehabilitation Applications

International healthcare professionals visiting Robotimize's regional hubs experience comprehensive Synslai demonstrations illustrating the system's clinical applications, workflow integration, and role within broader upper limb rehabilitation protocols. These hands-on experiences enable clinicians to evaluate whether Synslai addresses their specific patient populations, facility constraints, and outcome priorities.

The demonstrations emphasize Synslai's focus on dexterity and functional recovery—not just gross motor movement but the fine motor control enabling activities of daily living. Hand rehabilitation succeeds when patients regain ability to manipulate objects, perform precision tasks, coordinate bimanual activities, and execute the countless hand movements that daily life requires. Technologies addressing only shoulder or elbow function while neglecting hand dexterity leave patients functionally dependent despite apparent motor gains.

International delegates particularly value understanding how Synslai integrates with other rehabilitation modalities. Mirror therapy rarely functions as standalone intervention—patients benefit from combining neuroplasticity facilitation through mirror therapy with motor assistance from robotic devices, neuromuscular activation through functional electrical stimulation, strengthening exercises addressing underlying weakness, and functional task practice applying recovered capabilities to meaningful activities.

The demonstrations also address practical implementation considerations: setup time and workflow efficiency, patient positioning and comfort during therapy sessions, data collection and progress monitoring, maintenance requirements and technical support needs, and training approaches ensuring clinical teams utilize systems effectively. These operational factors often determine whether technologies deliver theoretical benefits in real-world clinical settings.


Synslai in Practice: Implementation Planning for Clinical Settings

Synslai's clinical implementation pathway demonstrates how evidence-based mirror therapy can integrate into contemporary rehabilitation practice. Healthcare providers considering adoption evaluate deployment across diverse settings—hospital-based rehabilitation units serving acute stroke patients, outpatient clinics supporting ongoing recovery, specialized neurological rehabilitation centers, and potentially home-based programs extending therapy access beyond facility walls.

Successful implementation requires technologies that accommodate clinical workflow realities. Therapists manage multiple patients with diverse conditions, operate under time constraints, navigate documentation requirements, and coordinate with interdisciplinary teams. Rehabilitation technologies succeed when they enhance rather than complicate these workflows—providing clinical value that justifies the time, effort, and resources required for adoption.

Synslai's design reflects Rehabotics' commitment to practical clinical tools. The system's straightforward setup, intuitive operation, and clear patient instruction protocols address workflow efficiency concerns that often determine whether technologies achieve sustained clinical utilization or become expensive equipment gathering dust. These usability features emerge from working closely with clinical partners who provide candid feedback about what works and what doesn't in actual practice environments.

Robotimize's partnership with Rehabotics includes comprehensive implementation support: clinical training programs building therapist competency in evidence-based mirror therapy protocols, workflow integration consultation addressing facility-specific operational considerations, ongoing technical and clinical support ensuring sustained utilization, outcome measurement frameworks demonstrating value to institutional stakeholders, and knowledge exchange connecting early adopters with healthcare providers considering implementation.
