According to a recent Medgadget article, researchers at the SUTD have developed a flexible knee wearable that integrates circuitry into its knitted structure. The wearable tracks joint movement in real time, helping clinicians detect early signs of movement disorders or monitoring the progress of patients undergoing physical therapy to improve their movement. The device is designed to be comfortable, functioning as a single knitted garment with sensors and other components forming flexible circuits within the fabric.
