Kinova est un chef de file en robotique professionnelle. Fondée en 2006 à Boisbriand, Québec (Canada), la mission de l'entreprise était à l'origine de rendre la vie des gens ayant des limitations au haut du corps plus facile, à l'aide de technologies d'assistance robotique. Plus de 15 ans plus tard, l'entreprise a fait évoluer sa gamme de produits afin de répondre aux besoins de nouveaux marchés — aidant chercheurs.euses, professionnels.elles de la santé, gouvernements, commerces et institutions académiques. Aujourd'hui, avec des technologies étant le fruit de plus d'une décennie d'ingéniosité inspirée, la dédication de Kinova se traduit par un désir de fournir des solutions aux professionnels.elles d'industries telles que l'agro-alimentaire, la santé, la sécurité, le nucléaire, les matières dangereuses et la fabrication avancée.
