MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611022882 A) filed by Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, on Feb. 26, for 'a method, an adaptive knee rehabilitation device, and a system for calibrated angle control, controlled resistance modulation, and smart range-of-motion (rom) tracking with rehabilitation feedback.'
Inventor(s) include Adeena; and Dr. Kayinat Hassan.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to an adaptive knee rehabilitation system incorporating a calibrated angle measurement system, a controlled resistance and damping mechanism, and a smart rehabilitation feedback module for real-time range-of-motion (ROM) tracking. The system comprises a stationary support frame and a movable thigh support member pivotally connected through a hinge mechanism. Integrated angle sensors precisely measure angular displacement during knee flexion and extension exercises, while resistance and damping elements regulate motion smoothness and joint loading. A processor coupled with a memory executes machine learning algorithms to analyze biomechanical parameters including flexion angle, angular velocity, resistance profile, and movement symmetry. Based on classified rehabilitation stages, the system dynamically modulates resistance and provides tiered feedback ranging from progression guidance to protective limitation against hyperextension. The invention enables safe, incremental ROM progression, reduces risk of reinjury, supports personalized rehabilitation, and facilitates structured reporting for clinical or home-based therapy management."
