In this episode i have talked about knee brace In simple word we can say these are the specific devices which are used to treat the anatomic knee joint deformity in particular.

I would like to say that whatever is beautiful, what ever is meaningful, whatever brings you happiness may it be yours this holiday season and throughout the coming season. Wish you all a very happy christmas

There are more company which are in the business of fabricating the knee braces most of them are directly connected to P&O field, but as in every industries we have some non expected company one of which is an italian company which is known for the manufacturing motor cycle that is ducati, they came up with a knee brace. to know more about this be sure to check the episode till last.

When we centre on the medical field, changes in gait reveal key information about persons’ quality of life. This is of special interest when searching for reliable information on the evolution of different diseases: (a) neurological diseases such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's; (b) systemic diseases such as cardiopathies (in which gait is clearly affected); (c) alterations in deambulation dynamic due to sequelae from stroke and (d) diseases caused by ageing, which affect a large percentage of the population. Accurate reliable knowledge of gait characteristics at a given time, and even more importantly, monitoring and evaluating them over time, will enable early diagnosis of diseases and their complications and help to find the best treatment.

Within this episode we are going to see the various approaches to perform a gait analysis, and the technologies which are involved in it, for say a wearable sensor, of a floor sensor. There are various other method or test which are also involved in the process.

When we think of Origami the first photo which comes in mind is a paper flower or a plane , but the origami concept has used by NASA to develop various type of components or parts for outer space. the same concept of origami can also be used in the prosthetic and orthotic field, as a matter of face the use of artificial muscle used in prosthetic are inspired by origami, As for today episode we are more focus on the application and various material which can be used to design a origami inspired orthosis.

the yanko design from beyond function has a origami inspired orthosis design link below:

In this episode we are discussing the fundamentals of biomechatronic,  it's components and the basic idea how we can achieve the idea Biomechatronic device in the field of prosthetic and orthotic.

if you want to check out in depth the principle then i would suggest the "hand book of biomechatronics by jacob segil,phd" it's not a promotion but i think this book is a great source for this topic.

The prosthetic and orthotic go hand in hand, so if we have seen the history of prosthetics in the previous episode then is best that we also look into the history of orthotic and how it has been inspired by the prosthetic materials. In this episode, you can see how the field of orthotics has been revolutionized overtime period.
