Innovative Exercise Solution For Older Adults

The elderly and people with dementia in nursing homes are not offered sufficient opportunities for physical activity and cognitive stimulation, making it important to adopt new and innovative solutions to prevent injuries, and improve health quality of life.

Motitech’s solution, Motiview, is designed to give an aging population increased quality of life through physical activity, mental stimulation and social connection. Their innovative concept makes it possible to go on virtual bike rides using a global video library. User-adapted ergometric exercise bikes are used in combination with videos of familiar roads and experiences, as well as suitable music or sound. The main user group is elderly people and those suffering from dementia in public and private care homes, day care centres, nursing homes, home care services and rehabilitation.

Ferd Social Entrepreneurs acquired an ownership interest in the company in 2018.

Motitech was awarded the title of Social Entrepreneur of the Year in 2017.
