Title: 

Vrneck functional movement task boards. 

Protection status: 

European patent No EUIPO 006549135-0001-0008 

Subject: 

The subject of the invention is the VRneck SOLUTION system – An innovative system for diagnosis, therapy and training of functional disorders and injuries of the cervical and cervico-thoracic spine. Using artificial intelligence and machine learning, the system determines the so-called segmental mobility network of the cervical and cervicothoracic spine. Analysis of the mesh parameters allows for the assessment of the functionality of individual segments of the cervical spine. VRneck SOLUTION consists of several elements: virtual reality (VR) goggles, a system of special gyroscopes for positioning the body during the examination, and software enabling the registration and analysis of functional tasks performed by the patient. 

Benefits: 

Significant acceleration of diagnosis and initiation of early individualized rehabilitation using artificial intelligence (AI) compared to the existing, subjective methods of assessing the functions of the cervical spine; complementing currently available methods in the health care system. The additional use of virtual reality in kinesiotherapy allows for the optimization of therapeutic procedures. 

Stage of work: 

Product presentation at the invention fair: 

  • Awards won during the 61st edition of the International Fair of Invention, Scientific Research and New Technologies BRUSSELS INNOVA 2012 – silver medal and special award – Medal of the State Intellectual Property Agency – AGEPI, Republic of Moldova for the innovation ‘The device for diagnosis and treatment of cervical spine’; 
  • Two special awards and a Gold Medal at the KIDE 2018 International Innovation and Design Fair in Kaohsiung, Taiwan; 
  • Obtaining funding from the NCBiR – signing by the consortium of the Medical University of Lodz (Leader) and Edventure Research Lab Sp. z o. o. – companies from the Betacom SA capital group; 
  • Conducting a clinical trial to confirm the diagnostic and therapeutic effectiveness of the system, as well as to assess its safety and usefulness in planning therapy and monitoring the effectiveness of treatment. 

Application: 

Diagnostics, therapy planning and monitoring the rehabilitation process of patients with functional disorders in the cervical spine, cervicocephalic junction and cervico-thoracic junction caused by diseases of the musculoskeletal system or injuries. Development of an individual therapy program that includes, among others: manual therapy, kinesiotherapy and physical therapy treatments. A helpful tool in the work of doctors, physiotherapists, rehabilitators and personal trainers.
