About BrainCo

BrainCo was founded in 2015 by a Harvard Innovation Lab team and is headquartered in Hangzhou, China. The company began as a neurotechnology business developing brain-computer interface headsets for education and attention training, before expanding into robotic prosthetics and bionic hands through its BrainRobotics division. This background gives BrainCo a distinctive approach to robotic hand development, with deep expertise in neural signal decoding applied directly to prosthetic and robotic control systems.

The BrainRobotics bionic hand uses EMG (electromyography) signals to enable intuitive control by prosthetic users, achieving a natural control experience that has earned the product medical device approvals in several markets. The company has also developed robotic hand platforms for industrial and research applications that apply the same dexterous manipulation capabilities to non-prosthetic use cases.

BrainCo has raised substantial investment and has established distribution for its prosthetics in the US and Asian markets, with growing European interest. The company bridges the medical and robotics domains in a way that is relatively uncommon.

Key Products

• BrainRobotics Bionic Hand: EMG-controlled prosthetic hand with multiple grip patterns and intuitive neural control.
• BrainRobotics Robotic Hand (Industrial): Dexterous multi-finger robotic hand for research and industrial manipulation tasks.
• Focus BCI Headset: EEG attention-training device for educational use.

UK Market Presence

BrainCo has distribution arrangements in Europe, and the BrainRobotics prosthetic hand is available through specialist prosthetic clinics and rehabilitation technology suppliers in the UK. Prosthetic pricing depends on funding routes; research and industrial robotic hand units are available directly and through distributors at prices typically between £8,000 and £20,000.

Buying Used BrainCo Equipment

Used BrainRobotics hands appear occasionally through medical equipment resellers and occasionally on eBay. Prosthetic units require calibration to individual users and should be professionally refurbished before use. Industrial units are rarer secondhand. Battery and electrode condition are the primary maintenance concerns. Confirm ongoing software and calibration support before purchasing any secondhand BrainCo product.
