Brief description: This device, that was my master's thesis project, is aimed to help patients regain their knee range of motion after total knee arthroplasty or while having problems due to several illnesses that cause knee stiffness. The device has an array of soft inflatable pouches that move the knee joint when inflated. The device is controlled using an IMU unit mounted on the ankle of the patient and is controlled using a closed loop sliding mode controller.
