For the first time, 9 startups at once presented Ukraine at CES 2022.

New generation bionic hand prosthesis

Technology that has the potential to radically improve the lives of people with disabilities, with a touching story behind it. Esper founder Dmitry Gazda created a startup inspired by his friendship with a girl who lost her arm in an accident. This served as the starting point for the creation of a bionic arm bone prosthesis.

Sugarcane toothbrushes

A direct way to keep the world free of plastic. The brush consists of recyclable materials such as sugarcane cellulose paper and nylon bristles. Disposable eco razors were also presented.

"Smart" crutches

The project is developing smart attachments for crutches, which through sensors control and record the load on the body in a program. This helps speed up the recovery process for patients with diseases and/or injuries of the lower extremities, reduce the risk of complications and prevent re-injury. A special application has been released for “smart” crutches.

“We make the rehabilitation process easier and without additional complications. Our expectations from the exhibition are that we want to find new partners and distributors and, perhaps, look at other solutions and business models for solving such problems,” says a startup representative.

Safe virtual reality helmet

For VR lovers. The annoying wires have been replaced by safe laser beams that allow you to play without hindering the user's movement with the fear of catching something.

The ability to create your own 3D twin

The only software product - and this is what makes it so remarkable. Startup Manna, using a smartphone, wearable sensors and modern 6DoF navigation, will allow everyone to become a part of the VR environment by creating their own 3D counterpart.

As conceived by the authors, an avatar can move to different locations, communicate with other people's avatars, like them, share content from Manna on social networks.

Fireplace with cartridge

Perhaps the brightest startup. The creators of Neverdark brought to the conference a bio-fireplace with a real fire, but without smoke or smell. The new representative of the “smart” home is refilled with special cartridges and allows you to choose a comfortable flame level.

“We are ready to light our pure fire and conquer America!” says a startup representative.

Mosqitter - smart mosquito control system

Mosqitter has developed a smart mosquito control system. This startup is at the exhibition for the second time.

Mosqitter was at CES for the first time in 2020, and thanks to this, the company found several strong partners from India and Italy. And the production of the system has already been established in these countries. Therefore, the company has very optimistic plans.

“We think we will find good partners for Mosqitter this year,” says a company representative.

Remote monitoring of the main parameters of the human body

The device is attached to the heart area using a special patch with a sensor. With its help, doctors can track ECG indicators, heart rate and respiration rate, sleep quality, etc. via a mobile application. According to the creators, the device is capable of preventing about 40 different diseases.

Emotion mask

Ukrainian startups also brought the “world’s first emotional mask” Qudi to the exhibition. It responds to head movements, opens its mouth during a conversation, and can show various speaker animations. So, if you shake your head from side to side, the inscription “No” will appear, if you nod, then “Yes”.

Through Bluetooth and the app, you can select emojis or drawings to be broadcast on the mask. This is the solution for those who want to remain anonymous and create unique content.
