==> picture [125 x 82] intentionally omitted <==
Our patented code creates a “switch” to operate devices
==> picture [236 x 197] intentionally omitted <==
Your brain sends a thought like “move my index finger”.
To move your finger, an electrical signal is created and
Electromyography (EMG) is the detection of this signal.
Our core IP uses smart
algorithms to detect, analyse and convert your body’s bioelectrical EMG into code so a user can select an item and operate a device.
Users can type, generate speech, send emails, browse the web, stream entertainment, access social apps, control their environment (lights, electric beds), play with toys, and more.

----- End of picture text -----
==> picture [226 x 225] intentionally omitted <==
One of the first prototype systems in the NeuroEDUCATOR series was developed 20 years ago with feedback from Stephen Hawking who trialled our technology for many years.
A wireless, wearable NeuroNode was first launched in 2017. Using our IP, EMG assists disabled people in accessing technology for the world’s best communication experience.
Just launched in 2023, the NeuroStrip weighs less than a piece of paper and is a miniature version of our core IP. It’s our main lever for growth with unlimited uses beyond disability.

Our fastest near term path to growth
Those with degenerative neurological conditions, spinal cord injuries, cerebral palsy, and other conditions with movement restrictions can now access a computer, phone, tablet, and other assistive devices . with subtle muscle signals
On the communication device, NeuroNode acts as a switch that is translated into a mouse click to manipulate the client’s communication and control software.
We hold a provisional patent for AI-based software that gamifies our core technology , allowing users to create and share original content like digital art and stories with teachers, parents, and loved ones. We believe this is a world first.

Minimum $1bn global market opportunity p.a.
The new US insurance code approved in August 2024 opens up significant growth opportunities with a new US wholesale strategy.
Exclusive UK and Ireland Distribution Agreement signed with SmartBox (~70% market share) in Sep-24.
An underserved niche market with few competitors and plenty of room for growth in the US, UK, Japan, Australia and select European countries - especially given the strength of our IP
About 66,000 new cases are diagnosed each year for ALS/Motor Neuron Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy and Spinal Cord Injuries in our chosen markets. This represents a $1bn+ market opportunity per annum.
However, the market is significantly larger at $2.8bn+ as we can now offer our products to people with existing assistive communication technology. By upgrading to our NeuroNode, customers get a faster, easier and more consistent communication experience.

Continue to focus on growth, diversification and innovation
Goal: Achieve near-term EBITDA-positive operations in all key geographic markets for our primary disability business. Plan for FY25: Diversify into new products and markets to drive additional growth.
Diversifying with NeuroStrip outside the disability markets helps reduce reliance on slow and unpredictable insurance payment cycles. Further manage these risks by wholesaling our DROVE wheelchair controller, NeuroNode and NeuroStrip products in relevant markets.
