Skiers hurt their knees due to lack of training and experience . This is because they don’t have something or someone who can tell them, every time they ski , what moves not to do in order not to hurt their legs through falling or adopting an incorrect position.
Our solution is a knee brace which will monitor the stress level present in the knee during descents. This information is processed and then sent to users’ smartphone , so that he can view their moves in 3D and see which ones not to repeat next time .
Our targeted customers are medium to professional skiers .
We are offering a non-intrusive way of monitoring users’ movements. Also, by creating a user profile, we are able to formulate slope recommendations for users, so that they would ski on the slopes that best fit their riding style.
