Brief description This project aims to develop a robust wearable device capable of providing immediate audible feedback with respect to knee motion for enhanced post-knee replacement surgery rehabilitation, suitable for use by older people both independently and supervised at home or in the clinic. As there is a current unmet need for such wearable biofeedback devices, this project will lead to intellectual property generation, strengthened partnerships between the involved parties and identification of an industry partner to commercialise the technology.
