About Us
StrideLink's mission is to bring simple and affordable wearable technology into physical therapy clinics.
Story
Our team has interviewed over 45 physical therapists and noticed a fundamental lack of objective data use in clinics. Many assessments are made using the naked eye and within the confines of the clinic.
We aimed to create a tool that physical therapists would be able to use in and out of the clinic to supplement their assessment of patients.
The StrideLink team's journey to design accessible gait analysis technology has lead to the "Best Overall Project" award by Georgia Tech's Capstone Expo and participation in the 2021 CREATE-X Startup Launch Program.
Vision
Our vision is for StrideLink to become a fundamental tool in gait analysis. We bring clinically relevant metrics to recovery for a wide range of diseases and impairments. Clinicians can now objectively track a patient's progress with metrics that have predictive potential.
We hope for this device to fit seamlessly into a physical therapists workflow and supplement the training they've received. By putting numbers to gait assessments we hope to increase patient retention as well by showing patients their improvements week over week.
Technology
With research and consumer grade gait analysis technology available in the field, StrideLink works to bring this to the clinical setting through our IMU-based wearable and web-app designed with physical therapists and their patients at the front of our minds.
We have designed our own PCB for our electronics along with a custom housing to secure the device firmly to shoes. Our secure cloud-based web-app keeps patients information safe but also easily accessible for physical therapists.
