Description

CURO is a modular wearable to support hand health in the digital age. Due to the digitalization of work and everyday life, our hands are exposed to high levels of stress. At the same time, many people cannot simply relieve their hands despite pain or complaints such as tendonitis, as digital devices are an integral part of their everyday life.

Classic bandages offer stability, but often restrict the mobility of the hand and can therefore only be integrated into everyday work to a limited extent. CURO responds to this conflict with a modular glove system that enables targeted support without immobilizing the entire hand.

The system consists of modules that can be attached individually depending on the affected fingers. By adjusting the tension, the degree of support can also be regulated. In this way, the system can be adapted to different complaints and individual needs.
