About OYMotion

OYMotion is a Shanghai-based robotics company specialising in the intersection of neural signal decoding and robotic hand technology. The company develops both consumer and professional-grade bionic hands and robotic grippers using surface electromyography as the primary control modality. Their research background in neural signal processing informs both the hardware design and the software algorithms that translate muscle signals into precise robotic finger movements.

The gHand series covers prosthetic and assistive applications, designed for users who have lost limb function and seek a naturalistic, responsive alternative. The gForce series is a wrist-worn controller device that uses EMG to enable gesture-based control of computers, robots, and other devices, positioning it as both a consumer technology product and a research tool for human-robot interaction studies.

OYMotion has collaborated with academic institutions and published research on surface EMG decoding, building scientific credibility alongside their commercial product development.

Key Products

• gHand: Multi-finger bionic prosthetic and robotic hand with surface EMG control.
• gForce Armband: Wrist-worn EMG gesture controller for robot and computer control.
• gForce Pro: Higher-specification EMG armband for research and professional applications.

UK Market Presence

OYMotion products are available in the UK through online direct purchase and select medical technology distributors. The gForce armband is available at consumer-accessible price points (approximately £150 to £300), while gHand units are priced in the prosthetics range and typically require clinical involvement for proper fitting and calibration. UK import from official channels is straightforward.

Buying Used OYMotion Equipment

Used OYMotion products, particularly the gForce armband, appear on eBay UK at significant discounts to new pricing. Electrode pad condition and battery health are the primary concerns on used units. For gHand prosthetic units, professional refurbishment is strongly recommended due to the precision calibration required. Software support for current models is maintained, but older firmware versions may have limited update pathways.
