Making Pain and Touch Research Painless

Developed at Columbia University and spun out to advance scientific innovation, the ARM (Automated Reproducible Mechano-stimulator) automates mechanosensory assays to improve reproducibility in pain research and accelerate drug development

KEY BENEFITS

Improving on Traditional Techniques

ARM empowers researchers with tools that transcend traditional limitations, delivering precision, speed, and reliability to uncover breakthroughs in pain mechanisms and accelerate non-opioid therapies.

Accuracy

Automation minimizes error and bias.

Efficiency

Fast training and simplified workflows save time.

Consistency

Standardized methods enable reproducible results across labs.

Insight

Data integration and high-speed imaging

HOW IT WORKS

How ARM Delivers Precision

We improve aiming 15x and deliver reliable, custom stimulus and training. Automated aiming is in development.

Same Stimulus Every Time

Customize your stimulus and deliver it knowing it will apply the same force for same max time every time. Use automated withdrawal measurements and highspeed cameras to analyze your data.

Remote Stimulus Delivery

ARM uses precise remote aiming for precise stimulus delivery, decreasing human variability and setting a new standard in data collection. Full automation via machine vision and self-aiming technology is in development.
