Touch Bionics has developed a unique mobile device application that allows users to quickly and easily change the configuration of their Touch Bionics prosthesis, without the need to log in to a PC.

With the biosim app, users can create groups of their favorite grip patterns and triggers and can then access those favorites with a single tap. This can be useful for creating sets of features that the wearer finds useful in certain situations: at home or at work, for example.

Most of the main features of the biosim PC software are also included, allowing selection of grip patterns, triggers and viewing a real-time graph of the wearer's muscle signals.

The exciting biosim app is part of the Touch Care program and is provided along with an iPod Touch when a prosthesis wearer participates in the Patient Care Pathway.

You can read a Quick Start Guide for the mobile application here.

"While not intended for heavy manual work, it so often the little things relating to the activities of daily living that are the most important to people - like tying your own shoelaces."
