Project Aim:
Greater knee laxity is a key indicator of joint integrity and predictor of future injury risk. This project will take a multidisciplinary engineering approach to define (Aim 1), creatively design and build (Aim 2) and conduct extensive customer discovery on (Aim 3) a Phase I prototype that will inform and refine the design for future Phase 2 activities. Our commercialization goal is to equip clinicians with a precision instrument that enhances diagnostic accuracy, informs rehabilitation progression and return to play decisions, and identifies at-risk individuals with minimal training.
