대구 창업기업인 ㈜에임의 수동 휠체어 낙상방지 모듈형 로봇 '센트라'가 세계 최대 전자·정보기술 전시회인 'CES 2027' 고령자·장애인 지원 기술 부문 혁신상 수상 기술로 선정됐다.

12일 대구 북구에 따르면 센트라는 휠체어가 넘어지지 않도록 양쪽 바퀴와 의자 하부에서 무게중심을 잡아줘 낙상 사고를 예방하는 장비다.

기존 사용하던 휠체어에 5분이면 설치할 수 있어 편리하다는 장점도 있다.

에임은 지난 3월 북구 창업 지원센터인 창업놀이터에 입주해 CES 관련 맞춤 컨설팅, 영상 제작, 출품비 등을 지원받았다.

센트라는 내년 1월 열리는 미국 라스베이거스 CES 2027에서 스타트업 전용관인 유레카파크 경북대 공동관 부스를 통해 선보일 예정이다.

이근수 북구청장은 "앞으로도 지역 창업기업의 성장을 적극 지원하겠다"고 밝혔다.
