About

Nina is an AI-enabled wearable device designed to help quarantining athletes stay in shape while managing and healing knee pain. It is comprised of two parts: a strap-on knee brace and a mobile app. While worn, the brace constantly monitors flexion by measuring the magnetic field between sensors below and above the knee. A tactile strip can also be used by the wearer to indicate pain level with a simple stroke. These pain recordings and knee angles can then be reviewed in-app along with personalised training videos to help manage and heal injuries.
