GIA-Tech GIA-Tech is developing an electrical stimulation device designed to improve post-surgical recovery. The device reduces muscle degradation and promotes healing by delivering neuromuscular electrical stimulation during periods of immobilization. Following surgery, the device is placed beneath the surgical wrap to help reduce muscle atrophy and swelling.

MORPH MORPH, which stands for Modular Open-source Robotic Programming Hub, offers a mobile robot paired with structured lesson plans designed to teach practical robotics skills to learners with a wide range of experience levels. The platform serves students and educators in K-12 and higher education robotics programs who need accessible, hands-on learning tools and curriculum.
Many robotics kits are either expensive and designed for advanced users or overly simplistic with limited functionality. MORPH addresses this gap with a customizable base kit that includes plug-and-play sensors and an integrated curriculum, allowing users to progress at their own pace.
