Abstract
We designed and developed a feedback-guided balance device that can be used for patient rehabilitation, training, and athletic conditioning, including for elite athletes. This system is cross-platform, enabling users to connect via Bluetooth using any computer or a mobile device. The user interface is intentionally minimalist to facilitate ease of use. Users can independently adjust the system’s complexity and exercise types. Performance data can be accessed by professionals, such as physical therapists or coaches, who can subsequently tailor recommendations based on this data. The system can also be utilized to monitor patient recovery and ensure correct execution of exercises within prescribed repetition ranges. As exercises are modifiable based on patient age and condition, a framework is being developed to allow clinicians to easily design and implement new exercises on the system.
