Verve Motion Company Profile

SafeLift is a soft and light exosuit that wears like a backpack but takes 40% of the strain off a worker with every lift, and reduces injuries by 5X.

SafeLift is a soft and light exosuit that wears like a backpack but takes 40% of the strain off a worker with every lift, and reduces injuries by 5X.

Born out of research at Harvard University’s Biodesign Lab, the SafeLift exosuit uses inertial measurement sensors woven into the suit to identify movement and trigger the hardware to provide up to 240N of assistive force while lifting.

The sensors also collect movement data that identifies risky and unsafe postures and, via an online portal, provides clear actionable reports to individual workers and supervisors. The suit’s controller can toggle between different assistive modes so it remains unobtrusive during non-lifting operations and activities (such as climbing a ladder or driving a forklift).

SafeLift is our soft, powered exosuit designed and built for workers who need to repetitively lift boxes, packages, or other heavy items. This light, flexible exosuit takes 30 seconds to put on, and reduces injuries 5X by offloading up to 40% of the strain off a worker during repetitive lifting operations.

  1. Assistive lift: Provides up to 240N of lift assistance offloading up to 40% of the weight of an object during each lift, thereby reducing fatigue and strain on a worker’s back, lowering the rate of injury by up to 80%.
  2. One Size Fits Most: Soft and flexible, the 6.5lb exosuit takes 30 seconds to put on and, with 8 points of adjustment, fits most individuals from 5’0” (1.5M) -> 6’6” (1.98M), XS ->XXL
  3. Safety Portal: Integrated sensors, combined with advanced analytics, identify risky or unsafe movements and provide clear, actionable reports to individual workers and supervisors via an online portal.
