    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Engineering
    • Rehabilitation Science
    • Human Movement Science

    Background:

    • Proprioception is crucial for balance control, but measuring joint position sense is challenging.
    • Existing methods for proprioceptive exercise lack self-measurement capabilities and home accessibility.
    • There is a need for accessible tools to monitor and enhance proprioceptive function.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and evaluate the iProprio system, a novel solution for measuring and improving proprioception.
    • To assess the feasibility of using smartphone technology for autonomous joint position sense measurement.
    • To determine the effectiveness of vibrotactile biofeedback for enhancing proprioceptive accuracy at home.

    Main Methods:

    • Development of the iProprio system utilizing smartphone inertial sensors, wireless communication, and voice commands.
    • Implementation of configurable vibrotactile biofeedback for user guidance.
    • A proof-of-concept study involving sixteen healthy young subjects to assess system effectiveness.

    Main Results:

    • Subjects demonstrated improved knee joint repositioning accuracy and consistency with iProprio's vibrotactile biofeedback.
    • The system enabled autonomous joint position sense measurement.
    • The study confirmed the potential for home-based proprioceptive training.

    Conclusions:

    • The iProprio system offers a viable solution for accessible and autonomous proprioception assessment and training.
    • Vibrotactile biofeedback is effective in enhancing joint position sense accuracy.
    • iProprio holds promise for home-based rehabilitation programs for improving proprioceptive function.
