WIRobotics' WIM KIDS Wins CES 2026 Innovation Award in Digital Health
Nov 6, 2025
WIRobotics has received the CES 2026 Innovation Award in the Digital Health category for its WIM KIDS wearable walking assistance robot designed for children aged 4 to 15.
WIRobotics has received the CES 2026 Innovation Award in the Digital Health category, announced in a press release. The recognition marks the third consecutive year the company has been honored at CES.
The awarded product, WIM KIDS, is a lightweight wearable robot that assists children in walking. It features a modular leg frame system that adjusts in three stages to accommodate growth from ages 4 to 15. The device weighs less than one kilogram, making it over 37% lighter than the adult version, WIM S.
WIM KIDS uses an AI-based personalized walking algorithm to provide natural movement support and stability. The system is designed to encourage independent walking while maintaining ergonomic comfort. WIRobotics has also expanded sales of its wearable robots in Europe and China since 2025.
The company noted that the WIM KIDS development combines its core technologies in growth-based frame design and AI motion control, continuing its goal of advancing wearable robotics for users across generations.

Tensordyne Napier: What If One Rack Could Do the Work of Nine?
Tensordyne
This Tensordyne whitepaper presents Napier, an inference-focused AI processor and rack-scale system based on the company’s TDN Math logarithmic number system. It examines infrastructure requirements for large mixture-of-experts and agentic models, compares major inference architecture approaches, and details the TDN AIP processor, TDN72 pod, TDN Link fabric, and Napier Ultra configuration. The paper reports simulation-based performance, cost, and accuracy-validation results, including Tensordyne’s projected comparison of one Napier rack with a nine-rack Nvidia Rubin plus Groq deployment; the chip is reported as taped out and in fabrication.
