DEVICE

KneeStim mobile rehabilitation assistance device

KneeStim is a neuromuscular electrical stimulation (NMES) device that integrates motion-tracking hardware like three-axis accelerometers and a real-time operating system to enable quadriceps muscle stimulation in time with user gait. It is a completely non-invasive device that looks like a light brace and fastens to the user's quadriceps and gastrocnemius muscles. The end goal of this device is to assist with muscle re-strengthening and re-education during a user's everyday activities.
