  walking systems wherever quadriceps are
  insufficient, we will be there to offer needed
  support

Todays Torso Support Dilemma

• Existing solutions limited terrain extra work,
  or massive power requirements high
  cost/performance
• State of the art computer controls to mimic
  gait decrease work by cutting weight (titanium)
  very expensive
• The underserved (existing techs benefits
  outweighed by costs) the elderly, stroke
  victims, the obese, excess load carries (full
  body armor with A/C new parents backpackers)

Our core solution

• Simply put a spring in series with a computer
  controlled clutch both in parallel with another
  computer controlled clutch
• Allows storage of energy usually lost during
  flexion
• Recycles that energy trims needs for muscle
  strength in extension
• Energy savings exceed the cost of carrying the
  device

Our Products

• Phase 1
• ASM stance master (stance-control uses)
• ARA running aid (non-medical uses)
• Phase 2
• ASP support platform (military/human mule
  applications)
• APA prosthetic adjuvant
• Phase 3
• AWA walking aid (bipedal solutions for
  paraplegics and beyond)

7
Target Market (US numbers only)

• Phase 1
• Existing orthotics candidates, particularly those
  who typically decide to forego them 2M-4M
• Stroke victims 3M-6M
• The obese approching 10M
• Phase 2
• Military 100k-200k
• Amputees 1M-2M

Bringing it to the customer

• Licensing to existing orthotics distributors
  (e.g. Kingsley manufacturing, Zimmer)
• Direct to orthotists for custom fitting just the
  joint
• Retail (non-medical brookstone, etc.)
• Direct to consumer head-to-head against the
  scooters
