Ossur
Ossur is an ISL Exoskeleton company that develops bionic prosthetics and orthotics with AI-driven microprocessor control for amputees worldwide.
Össur is a global medical device company headquartered in Reykjavik, Iceland, founded in 1971 by Össur Kristinsson, a prosthetist and amputee who invented the Iceross silicone liner for prosthetic sockets. The company specializes in non-invasive orthopedic technology including prosthetics, bracing, support products, and compression therapy. Össur listed on the Iceland Stock Exchange in 1999 and has grown to approximately 4,000 employees generating over $800 million in annual revenue by 2025. The company holds over 2,100 patents and maintains offices across the Americas, Europe, and Asia-Pacific. Össur's bionic product portfolio represents the cutting edge of intelligent prosthetics: the Rheo Knee uses magnetorheological technology co-developed with MIT, enabling the knee to learn and adapt to each user's gait; the Power Knee is the world's first motor-powered prosthetic knee that actively replaces lost muscle function, delivering powered extension during stair climbing and sitting-to-standing transitions; the Proprio Foot features a waterproof microprocessor ankle with Bluetooth connectivity and 18 degrees of adjustable ankle range of motion.
The company has successfully implanted 5-millimeter sensors in amputees' muscle tissue, enabling direct neural control of prosthetics. Össur also produces the CTi, Rebound, Miami J, and Unloader One bracing systems. Key customer segments include traumatic amputees, vascular disease patients, and athletes requiring high-performance mobility solutions. The company participates in EU research programs including the Symbitron exoskeleton consortium.
