This invention describes a system to track improvements in muscle strength and joint movement for a specific body part. It uses a sensor, held securely in a fixed spot by a stretchable band, to measure how the body part moves. The system establishes a baseline movement pattern, potentially from before surgery, and then counts exercise repetitions only if they meet a predefined movement goal.
Why it matters: Filed in 2018, the system's software analytics for baseline patterns and exercise thresholds can now leverage more advanced machine learning models. Miniaturized, power-efficient sensors are also more readily available for wearable devices.
AI gives you a few directions you could take this. Pick one, and we check whether your version is different enough to patent, then write the filing.
