iotaMotion provides an Implant Insertion System

Founding Year: 2015
Location: Iowa, USA
Funding: USD 8,6 M
Innovate with iotaMotion for Precision Ear Surgery

US-based startup iotaMotion develops a robotic surgical system for cochlear implant electrode insertion. It controls the speed of electrode array insertion while reducing the variability and forces experienced with manual implant insertion techniques. Moreover, the system holds the implant at a stable trajectory during the insertion phase, reducing the burden on surgeons. This solution enables more economical and precise cochlear implant procedures.

Hemideina makes Sound Processors

Founding Year: 2017
Location: Melbourne, Australia
Funding: USD 12,5 M
Partner with Hemideina for Wireless Implants

Australian startup Hemideina develops wireless implant devices for moderate-to-profound deafness. The startup’s device, Hera Wireless Implant System, features a sound processor/transmitter in the ear canal with an implant above the ear canal that uses mechanical signal processing. This is a miniature, low-powered solution that takes advantage of the outer ear structures through electrical stimulation. Additionally, the nerve fibers send a signal to the brain to provide the sensation of sound when the electrodes stimulate nerves. This way, the startup enables users to resolve their hearing issues by improving hearing-in-noise and filtering out background noise.

Advanced Optronics provides Auditory Implant Electronics

Founding Year: 2021
Location: Pittsburgh, USA
Work with Advanced Optronics for Biocompatible Sensor Systems

US-based startup Advanced Optronics develops flexible, biocompatible sensor systems to enable smarter, less invasive surgery. The startup’s solutions include flexible micro-electromechanical system (MEMS) sensors for cochlear implants which provides real-time feedback to surgeons. This allows surgeons to perform less traumatic insertions and preserve residual hearing, thereby improving patient outcomes.

Restohearing develops Low-Power Cochlear Implants

Founding Year: 2015
Location: Akiva, Israel
Use Resto Hearing’s solution for Miniature Piezo-based Devices

Israeli startup Restohearing makes a patented low-power ear implant for restoring hearing loss. It is a piezo-based device attached to the cochlear structure and anchored with a counter bone attachment unit to increase response. Additionally, a simple reversible surgery is possible for the device to be taken out without any functional damage. As a result, it overcomes the drawbacks of current cochlear implants such as skin trauma and complex surgical procedures.

TODOC offers an Implantable Pulse Generator

Founding Year: 2015
Location: Seoul, South Korea
Funding: USD 3,1 M
Collaborate with TODOC for Customized Prosthesis Semiconductors

Korean startup TODOC creates an implantable electronic medical device that stimulates the auditory nerve. Its implant, SULLIVAN, features a pulse generator that creates the stimulus and a sound processor that digitizes the sound input through a microphone. Additionally, the pulse generator is made with medical-grade titanium for impact protection and has an ultra-small form factor. This device enables hearing-impaired patients to hear sound through electrical stimulation.
