Digital Gait Labs is an Irish health technology company specializing in AI-powered gait analysis solutions. Founded as a spin-out from Dublin City University, the company developed GaitKeeper, a mobile application that utilizes artificial intelligence and augmented reality to assess walking patterns. This technology enables clinicians to conduct standardized gait assessments using a single smartphone video, eliminating the need for wearable devices or specialized equipment.
GaitKeeper has been clinically validated through a partnership with Tallaght University Hospital and the Insight SFI Research Centre for Data Analytics. The system provides objective, real-time gait metrics, facilitating early detection of health declines, particularly in older adults. Its portability allows for use across various healthcare settings, including hospitals, nursing homes, and patients' homes.
In recognition of its innovative approach, Digital Gait Labs received the Medtronic and UPMC Innovation Award at the 2022 Future Health Summit. The company continues to focus on delivering accessible, AI-based digital gait solutions for clinical applications in age-related and rehabilitation car
