ReNushu accelerates the benefits of physical therapysmart shoe technology that’s really smart
NuShu smart shoes provide real-time gait estimation and gentle haptic cues. Students designed a system that turns those signals into adjustable challenges aligned with clinical goals. Clinicians set targets, tune difficulty in seconds, and review clear session summaries. We combine game design, engineering, art, and user research to translate rehab goals into play.
In service to World Health Organization Sustainable Development Goal
The foundation for research is the Magnes AG Nushu which integrates clinical-grade gait analysis with intelligent haptic feedback making it able to detect hi-fidelity movement and immediately convert it into signals that prompt the brain with rhythmic vibrations, effectively serving as a digital bridge for damaged neural pathways. This technology makes it best-in-class for advanced physical therapy
Currently used to treat patients with Parkinson’s Disease, Magnes AGs NuShus contain sensors that detect movement patterns, speed, and balance, sending data to algorithms that trigger specific vibrations helping the wearer to “break the freeze” in their gait.

THERAPY in the clinic
and AT HOME
ReNushu is ideal for a clinical settings but it is also designed for at home use.
PHYSICAL THERAPIST INTERFACE
Students developed an interface that made it easy for therapists to assign, customize and monitor individual patient therapy.
Advanced Therapy
in a Game
The key to creating an effective therapy platform means incorporating both physical and cognitive challenges simultaneously. amp Movewell brings the patient to a campground setting which helps to make therapy both engaging and fun.
PATIENT TESTING
