Abstract

Knee injuries and osteoarthritis are common conditions that affect millions of people worldwide. These conditions can greatly impact a person's mobility and quality of life. Knee braces and orthoses are often used to alleviate pain and provide support, but they can be bulky and uncomfortable. In this paper, we present the design and development of a lightweight knee assistant that provides support and improves mobility for daily activities. The knee assistant is designed to be comfortable, easy to use, and unobtrusive. We evaluated the performance of the knee assistant in terms of its effectiveness, usability, and user satisfaction.
