Published: 6 October 2014
The Orthominder or Vibratory BioFeedback Orthosis (VBO) is an invention enabled through collaboration between the Bioelectronics Unit, the College of MVLS (former Faculty of Biomedical & Life Sciences) and the National Center for Prosthetics and Orthotics at the University of Strathclyde, Glasgow. The device uses vibration to remind the user to perform contraction/relaxation manoeuvres and provides feedback on the accuracy of the exercise.
