Kalogon’s founding team, made up of former SpaceX engineers, came together with local wheelchair users to develop our first product, Orbiter and continues to innovate. It took three years to develop Orbiter, and during this time the Kalogon team partnered with local wheelchair users, spinal cord injury clinics, and nursing homes to understand the needs around seating. Products Orbiter Orbiter Med Orbiter Accessories Booster Technology Bondar More Kalogon’s Technology, Designed to Improve Your Seated Health Our Core Technology: Pressure Relief in Action Intelligent Pressure Control: Using intelligent redistribution technology, Kalogon’s technology eliminates direct pressure on sensitive areas to not only accelerate the healing process of pressure injuries, but also prevents new injuries from occurring. Our technology also looks at blood flow, overall body temperature, weight shifts, and ambient conditions. Our tools monitor pressure changes within air cells, and adapt to user-defined preferences in real-time to maximize comfort and stability. Manage comfort preferences using iOS, Android app, or even on the device, depending on the product. Continuous Pressure Relief: Automate and control pressure redistribution using Kalogon app presets. Update your seating profile to define areas that require additional pressure relief or added firmness. Optimize blood flow across sensitive areas and enhance your existing offload routine. An Innovative Team Kalogon’s founding team , made up of former SpaceX engineers, came together with local wheelchair users to develop our first product, Orbiter and continues to innovate. It took three years to develop Orbiter, and during this time the Kalogon team partnered with local wheelchair users, spinal cord injury clinics, and nursing homes to understand the needs around seating. Kalogon also participated in the prestigious Praxis Spinal Cord Institute Incubate program. Our technology is patent-pending and uses a combination of air-cell and artificial intelligence to create optimal pressure control. Our research team explores different dynamics of sitting - understanding everything from blood flow to comfort, and these research papers and our ongoing development work continually improve our products.

Insights into Seated Comfort: Unveiling Challenges & Coping Strategies Among Wheelchair Users in the U.S Insights into Seated Comfort: Unveiling Challenges & Coping Strategies Among Wheelchair Users in the U.S April 2024 Comfort is a paramount concern for wheelchair users, as certain behaviors and considerations have to be made such as medication management, changing positions, exercise, and exploring complementary therapies. These findings delve into data from the wheelchair user population to closely examine the lived experience of wheelchair users, shedding light on the complexities that shape their daily lives. Open the insights or read more below To enhance seated comfort, wheelchair users have adopted a range of coping strategies for handling extended periods of sitting. The intent of these methods is to disrupt, redistribute, or shift constant pressures away from the ischial tuberosities (ITs) and sacrum. Among wheelchair users, a notable prevalence of respondents reported moving from side to side (56%) and repositioning themselves (72%) as common coping mechanisms. Coping strategies such as fidgeting, stretching, slouching, and repositioning themselves, often occur subconsciously as the wheelchair user attempts to alleviate discomfort. Offloading methods are deliberate and aim to intentionally alleviate and redistribute pressure away from sensitive pressure points, particularly around bony prominences. These intentional offloading methods include shifting from side to side, moving front to back, and lifting off the wheelchair. While able-bodied individuals often unconsciously adjust their posture to alleviate discomfort, wheelchair users face more chronic issues due to challenges in their ability to conveniently adjust their body position whenever necessary. Many of these individuals often endure prolonged periods of intolerable discomfort, ultimately hindering their engagement in basic everyday activities including work, education, and other recreational activities An addition to discomfort levels experienced by wheelchair users, the average number of hours before wheelchair users begin experiencing discomfort is 3.7 hours. A notable pattern emerges when comparing the uptick in discomfort reported by the U.S representative population after sitting for 30 minutes to 2 hours (40%) with a spike in discomfort reported by wheelchair users from sitting 2 to 4 hours (36%). In terms of gender distribution, a slightly higher proportion of females (52%) compared to males (46%) were found to be wheelchair users. Wheelchair users employ a diverse range of cushions and seating systems to alleviate the adverse effects of prolonged sitting, as shown in Figure 8. Among these, distributive/ immersion style cushions including air, foam, or gel cushions are prevalent among approximately two in five wheelchair users. Open the insights

Kalogon's patent-pending technology is purpose-built to reduce musculoskeletal pain and fatigue experienced by military aircrews during extended missions. Smart seating for mission-ready performance Tim Balz and Amanda Krantz from Kalogon present a B-52H Stratofortress smart seat cushion prototype to Brig. Gen. Ty W. Neuman, Director of Strategic Plans, Programs and Requirements, Air Force Global Strike Command and other A5/8 leadership and members December 6, 2023, at Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. Kalogon, a company that builds seat cushions for wheelchair patients, has been working with the A5/8 as they create the smart seat cushion while executing a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) program that allows small businesses to explore new opportunities for research and development. The acquisition of this product will increase comfort and increase mission readiness for B-52H crews. (U.S. Air Force photo by Master Sgt. Micky Peña) Built on Science and Innovation Kalogon’s seating systems are: Clinically validated through peer-reviewed studies and lab testing Patent-pending, engineered for defense and commercial needs alike We believe in solving tough problems – tell us yours. Backed by leading researchers Patent-pending air cell technology Orbiter Ace’s System Orbiter Ace is configured for each specific aircraft. Our Advanced Pressure Management System (APMS) dynamically adjusts to optimize aircrew comfort, extend seated tolerance during long missions, and reduce the risk of pressure-related injuries—supporting increased mission readiness and performance. We have successfully completed multiple U.S. Air Force SBIR Direct to Phase II contracts and have been awarded a TACFI (Tactical Funding Increase) contract in 2025 to support the transition of our technology into low-rate initial production. Originally developed to reduce pressure injuries in wheelchair users, Kalogon’s Advanced Pressure Management System (APMS) is now being adapted via dual use to meet the rigorous needs of the U.S. Department of Defense in their very own Orbiter Ace – starting with the Air Force’s B-52 and E4B fleet.* The appearance of U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) visual information does not imply or constitute DoD endorsement.
