Custom solutions for health, sport and rehabilitation

Some needs are not solved well by a standard product.

In health, sport or rehabilitation, a part often has to account for a body, a movement, a posture, an existing piece of equipment or a very specific use context.
 
AMmonite Lab helps turn these needs into concrete objects that can be tested: supports, physical interfaces, handles, contact points, ergonomic adaptations, functional prototypes and trial parts.
 
When a standard solution does not fit, AMmonite Lab helps create a part adapted to the movement, the body and the existing equipment. Starting from the real-world need, we design, scan and prototype tangible forms that your team, partners or users can test, adjust and improve.

Have an adaptation to test?


Tell us about the need, the equipment involved and the context of use. With a few photos or basic measurements, AMmonite Lab can help you quickly assess whether a first design direction is worth prototyping.

Designed around the body, movement and real use


A good physical solution does not depend only on the idea. It also depends on how it will be used.

A support, handle, interface or adaptation may need to be adjusted to a body shape, posture, pain point, range of motion, existing equipment or field constraint.

This is where prototyping becomes useful. It makes it possible to move quickly from an assumption to a testable form that can be held, compared, modified and improved.

What types of needs can this help with?


AMmonite Lab can support projects that require the design, adaptation or prototyping of a physical part related to comfort, movement, handling or equipment use.


Possible needs include:

  • adapting a grip, handle, support or interface to a specific body shape
  • testing a form before investing in a more advanced development process
  • creating a trial part for sport or rehabilitation equipment
  • improving the comfort of an object used repeatedly
  • scanning an existing shape to design around it
  • comparing several variations quickly
  • producing a prototype for discussion, validation or demonstration
  • exploring an idea with a professional in movement, rehabilitation or ergonomics

Examples of situations where AMmonite Lab can help


Projects often start with a very concrete constraint: an uncomfortable movement, equipment that does not fit quite right, a form to test or an idea that needs to move out of the screen.


AMmonite Lab can help, for example, with:

  • turning an adaptation idea into a first physical prototype
  • recreating or modifying an existing part from a 3D scan
  • testing several support shapes to compare comfort or stability
  • adapting an interface between a user and sport or technical equipment
  • creating a functional mockup to present an idea to a team, partner or investor
  • exploring a solution with a movement, ergonomics or rehabilitation professional
  • producing a small batch of trial parts before deciding whether the project should move further

 

Each project starts with a simple understanding of the need: who uses the object, in what context, with what constraint and for what purpose.

Who is this service for?

This service is designed both for organizations that want to develop or adapt a physical solution, and for professionals who identify concrete needs in the field.

  • Companies in sport, health, wellness or specialized equipment
  • Startups developing a physical product or adaptation
  • Private clinics and rehabilitation centers
  • Applied research teams
  • Innovation or product development teams
  • Manufacturers or distributors of specialized equipment
  • Organizations that need to adapt a tool, support or interface
  • Companies that want to validate an idea before moving toward more advanced production

A clear framework for sensitive projects

Projects related to health, rehabilitation or body use require a clear working framework from the start.

The goal is to design and prototype a physical solution that can be evaluated, while respecting the role of the professionals involved. The studio does not diagnose, replace a health professional or promise clinical outcomes.

Each request is assessed based on its use, risk level, context and required validations. Medical, clinical or regulated projects must be supervised by qualified professionals.

Ready to test a first version?

Do you need to prototype an adaptation, support, handle, contact point or physical interface?

Whether you are an entrepreneur, sport professional, clinic, laboratory or innovation team, the first step can stay simple: explain the need, show the equipment or situation, then determine whether there is a concrete direction worth developing.

Prepare a short description of the need, a few photos if possible and the context of use. During a first call, AMmonite Lab can help you clarify the most realistic direction and see whether a simple prototype is worth developing.
