Posted by in category: health

My name is Asim, Global Product Marketing Lead for Peridot, and I’m excited to share some news about our Peridot franchise that I’m incredibly passionate about.

Virtual pets have long been a source of fun and entertainment. But what if they could help us recover from injuries and illnesses, too?

Today we’re announcing our partnership with Augment Therapy, a digital health company building accessible immersive exercise software for healthcare. Together, we aim to help people recover from injuries and illnesses faster by creating new Peridot-inspired experiences for physical rehabilitation use cases in pediatric and geriatric care. What makes this partnership truly exceptional is our shared vision: leveraging cutting-edge technology to encourage movement and promote well-being.
