JACO is not a robot, because JACO doesn’t do for you. JACO is an assistive robotic device that gives you the power & the freedom to do for yourself.
Determining whether JACO is right for you is a very personal decision; one we hope is made from an informed perspective. Generally speaking, use of JACO is indicated if you have a condition that requires use of a power wheelchair and which limits or prevents use of your upper extremity. This includes a broad range of conditions that significantly limit the use of your arms and hands.
