SAN DIEGO – November 14, 2022 – (Newswire.com)
Bionic technology company PSYONIC announced that it has launched a fundraising round on the crowdfunding website StartEngine. The round will support the ongoing development and delivery of its breakthrough bionic hand. It has raised more than $500,000 in its first two public weeks and is currently listed among the site’s most-funded companies.
Released nationally in 2021, PSYONIC’s Ability HandTM was called the a “miracle in the works” by CNBC earlier this year.
The tough, lightweight Ability Hand is the only multi-touch sensing bionic hand on the market, and it closes faster than the blink of an eye – in about 200 milliseconds. It is made in the United States and is covered by Medicare, making it much more affordable and accessible than any other advanced bionic hand on the market.
Dr. Aadeel Akhtar, PSYONIC’s CEO, first encountered a person with a limb difference as a child visiting Pakistan with his parents. “She was my age, living in poverty, missing her right leg, and using a broken tree branch as a crutch. That’s what inspired me to want to go into this field and develop these advanced bionic limbs that would be affordable and accessible to others around the entire world.”
People throughout the United States – grandmothers and veterans, triathletes and teenagers – are already using the Ability Hand. (Watch them arm wrestle, flip a water bottle, and work on the farm.) PSYONIC is also exploring the development of a bionic leg, artificial tendons, new methods of providing sensory feedback, and software to improve biointegrated technologies’ functionality, responsiveness, and ease of use.
Anyone over 18 can now buy shares of PSYONIC with a minimum investment of $250.
The bionic limb market is expected to grow to almost $3 billion in the next eight years, and PSYONIC’s Ability Hand is in high demand among robotics researchers as well. NASA, Meta, and Apptronik are clients.
“The Ability Hand’s anthropomorphic form factor with robust and feature-rich hardware offers an exciting and unique potential to use it as a platform for research in robot learning and dexterous manipulation,” said Mustafa Mukadam, Ph.D., who is working with the Ability Hand at Meta.
Levi Hargrove, Ph.D., director of the Center for Bionic Medicine at the Shirley Ryan Ability Lab, said, “The Ability Hand is an extremely capable device, even for our most advanced research studies. The PSYONIC team is responsive to our feedback, which makes it very easy to use with our intuitive and personalized control systems.”
PSYONIC is a bionic technology company based in San Diego. Leveraging proprietary bionic breakthroughs, PSYONIC’s Ability Hand offers those with limb differences the high-performance solution they deserve. PSYONIC was founded by Dr. Aadeel Akhtar, who was one of MIT Technology Review’s top 35 Innovators Under 35 in 2021.

“As clinicians focus on their life-saving work, they can count on our team for the highest quality medical equipment when they need it where they need it,” USME CEO Greg Salario said. “We take great pride in supporting the mission of clinicians and hospital support staff in their meaningful work, which drives us to work harder and with more heart.”

For nine consecutive years, Frederica M. Williams, president and CEO of Whittier Street Health Center, a community health center with a mission to serve as a center of excellence that provides high-quality and accessible health care and social services that achieve health equity, social justice, and the economic well-being of a diverse patient population, has been named as head of one of the “Top 100 Women-Led Businesses in Massachusetts, 2022” by The Women’s Edge (formerly The Commonwealth Institute) and the Globe Magazine.
The 22nd annual Top 100 rankings were announced at an Oct. 28 awards breakfast, and the list was published in the “Women & Power” issue of The Boston Globe Magazine on Oct. 30. The ranking of the Top 100 Women-Led Businesses in Massachusetts list is based on an algorithm that factors in revenue, as well as diversity, innovation, and customer benefits.
“The Women’s Edge is recognized for championing women leaders to achieve professional and personal success,” said Williams. “With so many contributions from women throughout the years and with women still making strides and being ‘firsts’ in history, it’s important to honor these accomplishments. It’s especially important for women and girls to learn about the great hurdles women have and continue to overcome, so they are empowered to attain their goals.”
In addition to the Top 100 honor, Williams was featured in an article appearing in the Oct. 30th Boston Globe Magazine.
Williams was among 11 women leaders asked to share insights on cultivating diverse, dynamic teams in challenging times and is quoted as saying, “There are many management issues, politics, and relentless challenges that can make any leader pause and reflect. I always go back to the mission. It puts everything into perspective and re-energizes the reason why we do this work.”
The Women’s Edge is a nonprofit organization. Its membership includes CEOs, corporate executives, entrepreneurs, directors of nonprofits, independent professionals, and the rising generation of leaders who are committed to building successful businesses, organizations, and careers.
