Abstract
Orthotic legs are devices designed to assist individuals with mobility issues in their
lower limbs. These devices are usually custom-made to suit the individual's specific needs and
are intended to provide support and improve gait. They play a critical role in ensuring that the
orthotic leg is functional, comfortable, and safe for the patient to use. The sensors would
measure the pressure, angle, and other metrics of the orthotic leg. The data collected by the
sensors would then be sent to the IOT platform, which would store the data and provide realtime
monitoring and analysis. This approach would enable orthopedic professionals to track the
performance of the orthotic leg in real- time, allowing for better diagnosis and treatment. The
approach enables the collection of motion data in real-time and the analysis of the data to
detect any anomalies
