Basic Information
Nimaya Robotics was founded by Dr Ramya S Moorthy, Subashree Krishnan, and SA Srinivasa Moorthy in September 2018. Nimaya is using robotics-based therapy to help autistic children perform basic functions and become independent. Nimaya has so far conducted field pilots with 60 children across five special education centres in Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. The startup has come up with solutions like Joystick Skill Learning Unit, one of the first devices to be used in training sequence. The playtime involves moving the robotic arm towards the target toys using the joystick, which helps in developing concept of direction, palmar grasp, elbow movement, and hand-eye coordination. Similarly, the startup has developed other products like Door Skill Training Unit, Shoe Skill Training Unit, Shirt Skill Training Unit, and Trainer Interface Unit, which helps young kids learn daily activities. Nimaya has signed an MoU with The National Institute for Empowerment of People with Multiple Disabilities (NIEPMD), Chennai. Through this, it plans to offer training to all the children who come to NIEPMD.
