DIH, a provider of robotics and virtual reality (VR) technology in rehabilitation & human performance markets, has completed the sale of its Dutch local physical therapy software business (MRS) to a Dutch software company (Health Cloud Initiative (HCI)). By combining MRS’s FysioRoadMap software with the HCI software solutions both MRS and HCI will strengthen their position in the Dutch market.
DIH acquired MRS in 2016 through its subsidiary in The Netherlands, Motek Medical, a global leader in sophisticated VR-enabled movement platform powered by real-time integration. DIH has successfully integrated the MRS hardware business and developed the HERO Solution by blending the core technologies from both Motek & MRS to enrich DIH’s total solutions. All hardware solutions of MRS will remain a part of the total solution of DIH.
Integrating the MRS hardware devices, like Functional Squat, Cable Column, Cube, within the DIH Total Solution, offers a unique proposition for the rehabilitation market. A good example is the HERO Solution, where Motek Medical’s C-Mill is fully integrated with some of the MRS devices.
The sales of the software business of MRS strengthen the strategic focus on core advanced rehab technology systems. It also creates capacity for more acquisitions such as its recent acquisition of SafeGait Solutions from Gorbel in Oct 2022.
