A friend of engineer Micha Paalman had Duchenne's disease, a serious disease that slowly but surely attacks and weakens the muscles in the body. As the muscles lose strength, people with Duchenne could use some help to move their arms from a so-called exoskeleton to keep doing the daily activities on their own: a device that can support the arms. Strangely enough, insurers reimburse an armsupport for one arm only, while your quality of life is of course much better if you can use both your arms. Just think of something as simple as moving in a wheelchair: you need two arms for that. With that wish in mind, that his friend would be able to use both arms for as long as possible, Micha got to work.
