Wireless Muscle Feedback in Real Time? Sidekick’s Got You.
Whether you’re powering through tasks with the Hero RGD, showing off precision moves with the Hero PRO, or training up with the Hero Arm, the Open Bionics Sidekick app is built to support you at every stage of your bionic journey.
Connecting to your bionic hand via Bluetooth, the app makes training, tuning, and tracking your progress easier than ever. Here’s why this dynamic duo is a game-changer for improving prosthetic adoption rates.
The Sidekick app gives you real-time muscle feedback, right on your screen. Clinicians can quickly identify the strongest signal sites, while users can track their own muscle activity as they train. It’s smart, simple, and designed to give you confidence from the very first flex.
With the Sidekick app, you’re in control. Adjust grip modes, fine-tune grip force, and control grip speed – all from your device. Whether you’re picking up something delicate or powering through tough tasks, you can set your bionic hand to match the activity.
From bite-sized training videos to daily challenges, the Sidekick app helps you sharpen your bionic skills and stay on track. Monitor your progress over time and earn rewards as you level up your control and confidence.
With the Sidekick app, you can organize and group your favorite grips to suit your daily routine. Even better? New grip modes – like Flick, Rock & Roll (Hero RGD), and Finger Roll – are delivered straight to the app. No clinic visits, no delays. Just update, explore and get moving.
For our brilliant makers, Sidekick streamlines training and troubleshooting – so you can focus on building user confidence, not chasing cables. Use the app to record muscle signal graphs, track training progress over time, and even remotely control the bionic hand to test grip modes and ensure everything is set up right.
