innoSTEP-WL – wireless foot lifting system with remote control

The wireless foot drop system innoSTEP-WL is an easy-to-use device for the immediate improvement of the gait pattern in cases of foot drop weakness. Thanks to functional electrical stimulation, electrical impulses are sent to the nerves via electrodes on the skin, which ultimately leads to contraction of the corresponding muscles.

  • Walking barefoot without a heel switch
  • Easy handling
  • Flat and inconspicuous, can be worn under clothing
  • Can replace orthoses and peroneal splints
  • Increasing mobility – improving quality of life
  • Prescribable aid

How the innoSTEP WL foot lifter system works

The innovative, wireless foot drop system innoSTEP-WL enables direct compensation of foot drop weakness and an improvement in gait. Electrodes on the skin transmit electrical impulses to the fibular/peroneal nerve, the foot lifter muscle and other muscles involved in lifting the foot. Advanced sensor technology and intelligent algorithms precisely control the timing and duration of the electrical stimulation, so that the foot is lifted at the right moment when walking, enabling a stable, natural and safe gait. Settings can be made conveniently via a Bluetooth remote control with illuminated display. The repeatedly transmitted impulses are perceived and processed by the nerve structures in the brain and spinal cord – this can lead to neuronal rewiring and a permanently improved gait pattern.
