Fort Collins startup takes $225K in global competition

The money won will help Green Sun continue development of its tech-enabled spinal brace to treat adolescent patients suffering from irregular spinal curvature. Green Sun’s brace, according to a company release, applies the dynamic force to the spine, allowing the patient to move and generate constant corrective forces necessary to reverse deformity. Unlike rigid plastic braces, the tech-enabled brace uses a series of pressure sensors to help reform the patient’s spine into proper alignment while also providing digital monitoring capabilities.
