Popis: Electronic medical development focuses on creating an efficient rehabilitation device that will strengthen all surrounding muscles and enhance elbow performance. The elbow rehabilitation tool (ERT) provides sophisticated methods like exercise and motion analysis. The initiative is notable for its advanced assessment methods and adaptable training curricula, which offer users a thorough and successful therapeutic experience. The ERT includes elements like a stepper motor, variable resistor, steel wire, microcontroller, motor driver, and components created using a 3D printer. The experiment results show that the average systematic error percentage is about 82.857%, where seven healthy people have tested the ERT aged between 22 and 55 (five males and two females). The ERT also has achievement evaluation, which improves motivation and dedication to the recovery methods through an effective rehabilitation experience for users.
