REAL™ HISTORY
In 2017, Penumbra teamed up with Sixense Enterprises, a San Francisco Bay Area company specializing in enterprise use of VR hardware and software to build the REAL System. A diverse group of engineers, artists, designers and clinical experts from around the world, working as one team, created a customized device to meet the specific therapeutic needs of a wide range of patients and survivors. Initial FDA clearance was granted in 2019, and now Penumbra is proud to bring this unique tool to the practice of rehabilitation.
