The incidence of joint fractures is increasing and has become one of the major health problems in developed countries. Our low-cost motivated rehabilitation system enables clinicians to prescribe, demonstrate and monitor patient rehabilitation protocols during and between clinical visits. With its unique biofeedback feature it is useful for continuous patient's motivation. The proposed system can be used in wide spectrum of rehabilitation scenarios by simply downloading appropriate protocols. The hardware and software architecture(communication protocols, power management policies and application-level control) have been tuned to optimize cost,battery autonomy and real-time performance required for this application. The main advantages of the proposed system is home-based rehabilitation, low-cost and good user acceptability.
