Vincent Systems GmbH is a German medical technology company based in Karlsruhe.[1] The company develops myoelectric hand and partial hand prostheses.[1][2]
History
Before founding Vincent Systems, Stefan Schulz worked in the field of robotics and medical technology and conducted research for over ten years at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT). He earned his doctorate there in mechanical engineering with a focus on prosthetics.[1] Schulz's research work at KIT also included the development of the so-called fluid hand.[3][4]The hydraulic hand prosthesis was controlled by muscle signals and had five different grips.[3]
In 2009, Schulz founded Vincent Systems in Karlsruhe.[1][2] A part of the startup financing came from the prize money of the BMW Group Scientific Award from 2005.[1][5] Schulz received the award for his dissertation on an adaptive hand prosthesis based on flexible fluid actuators.[5][6] Further funds came from the family circle as well as from a savings bank loan.[1]
In 2016, Vincent Systems received the Innovation Award of the state of Baden-Württemberg for a bionic hand prosthesis with individually movable fingers.[7][8][9][10]
In 2017, Vincent Systems was among the nominated teams for the German Future Prize with the project 'Helping Hands – Tailor-Made High-Tech Prostheses'.[3] Nominated were hand prostheses for children and adolescents, a modular partial hand prosthesis system, as well as bionic prostheses with a sense of touch based on vibration signals.[3][11][12]
In the 2020 annual report of the Deutsches Museum, a hand prosthesis from Vincent Systems is mentioned in connection with the exhibition "Health." There, visitors were able to control the prosthesis themselves by tensing their forearm muscles.[13][14]
Products and technology
Vincent Systems develops hand prostheses for adults, including waterproof models, and smaller prostheses for children and adolescents. It also develops systems for partial hand loss, including prostheses for individual fingers or parts of the hand.[15][16]
