About us

History

Axiles Bionics is a Belgian spin-off from Brubotics (Vrije Universiteit Brussel) specialized in robotics, artificial intelligence, and human biomechanics.

17 years ago, our journey began with a passion for enhancing lives through technology. As we delved into robotics research, the challenges faced by hundreds of thousands of people undergoing a lower limb amputation yearly became obvious: Prosthetic feet didn't change much in 50 years—fixed and inflexible, like old ski-boots, failing to restore a natural gait and movement, leading to profound physical and psychological implications.

In 2019, Axiles Bionics was founded, marking a pivotal moment in our journey to revolutionise the field of prosthetics.

Mission

Our mission is to enhance the quality of life for individuals with limb deficiencies by providing innovative and high-performance solutions.

Through the utilization of advanced technologies, we aim to empower people to overcome their physical limitations and attain a state of "Peace of Mind and Body."
