ABOUT US
Torque3 is a MedTech startup that is developing a breakthrough neurorehabilitation solution. We are developing a realistic simulator that combines immersive VR, advanced robotics, and task-orientated therapy. Our integrated system is designed to help stroke and TBI survivors increase their neuroplasticity, and thus, make substantial gains faster.
By joining the Torque3 team, you will be a part of something much greater than yourself. There are 8 million stroke survivors in the United States alone, and unfortunately, almost 800K new people will be joining that group each year. These people are facing months – even years of rehabilitation, with very little hope of ever getting back more than a fraction of their former lives. The Torque3 platform will help these people - and their families - to become whole again.
