Wearable Devices announced a new pre‑commercial electromyography‑driven weight‑estimation capability on its Mudra Link wristband. The demonstration shows that surface EMG signals captured from the wrist can be translated into quantitative estimates of weight, torque, and force during lifting actions, marking the first public showcase of the technology protected by the company’s U.S. patent “Gesture and Voice‑Controlled Interface Device,” granted in October 2025.
The milestone is a key step in Wearable Devices’ neuromuscular‑computing roadmap. By converting subtle muscle activity into real‑time force measurements, the Mudra Link can provide actionable feedback for robotics control, industrial automation, sports performance analytics, and health monitoring. The company said the feature is currently used for internal testing, performance benchmarking, and proof‑of‑concept demonstrations, with plans to integrate it into future consumer and enterprise products.
The announcement expands the company’s intellectual‑property moat and signals a move toward commercializing a broader suite of sensor‑driven services. If successfully integrated, the weight‑estimation function could open new revenue streams and strengthen the Mudra platform’s appeal to sectors that require precise force sensing without bulky equipment, such as manufacturing, logistics, and rehabilitation.
While the technology remains in the pre‑commercial phase, the demonstration showcases Wearable Devices’ ability to translate its patented neural‑input framework into tangible, industry‑relevant capabilities. The milestone positions the company to pursue partnerships in robotics, industrial automation, and healthcare, potentially accelerating the adoption of its Mudra ecosystem beyond consumer wearables.
Guy Wagner, President and Chief Scientific Officer, said the ability to estimate weight directly from neuromuscular activity represents a fundamental step toward bridging physical effort and digital interaction, and that the recent patent lays the foundation for measuring weight and torque without the need to carry or use any device but the Mudra Link.
