How would Carbonhand help?

With Carbonhand, you get support exactly when you need it. The glove senses when you start to grip and adds power in proportion to your own effort, so your hand stays in control while the glove compensates for lost strength. This means you can hold, lift, and manipulate objects more securely, with less effort and fatigue.

Everyday activities that may feel difficult or exhausting, at home, at work, or during leisure, become easier and more manageable. By supporting your natural movements in real-world tasks, Carbonhand helps you stay independent, conserve energy, and regain confidence in what your hands can do.
