What is Intuy Modes?

Intuy Modes is a feature only available on Intuy Knee PRO.

Intuy Modes allow the user to perform activities such as squatting, leisure snow sports, and a self-programmed activity. 

The self-programmed activity (Custom) can be configured and changed by the user for their own need.

WARNING:

  • Intuy Knee is made for daily use. High intensity sports must be avoided. 
  • Active sports such as snowboarding or skiing have a risk of injury.
  • Low temperature can affect the battery life, the functions, and capability of the Intuy Knee. Consult the IFU regarding the allowed Temperature. Long-term low-temperature exposure should be avoided.
  • Intuy Knee is not waterproof, sufficient protection against snow or water is necessary for Intuy Knee to be functional.
  • Prosthetic socket and components must be checked to ensure secure connection to prevent potential injury.
  • Test the Intuy Modes on level ground, and feel the resistance provided by the knee and range of motion before going on to the snow or ice.


Intuy Modes are available only on Intuy Knee PRO devices.

2.2. Switch off Intuy Mode using a predefined Posture

To switch off Intuy Mode using a predefined posture, follow these steps:

This same movement allows the user to switch between Intuy Mode and Start mode.  After switching off the Intuy Mode using the predefined posture, user can re-enter the last Intuy Mode by performing the same movement, pointing the leg backwards. 
Note: If the user stays out of the Intuy mode for more than 30min, it will not be possible to re-enter the Intuy Mode using the predefined posture anymore. The user must re-enter the Intuy Mode from the app.


3. Customize Settings ​

It is possible to customize Intuy Modes settings for skiing, snowboarding, skating, and the custom activities. Settings that you can adjust are target angle, flexion limit, extension limit, flexion resistance, and extension resistance. 

3.1. Parameters and Their Explanation 

Extension limit: Maximum allowed extension angle; beyond this angle, the knee will be difficult to extend.

Target Angle: Spring return angle; this is the angle the knee will return to when you stop applying force to the knee.

Flexion limit: Maximum allowed flexion angle; beyond this angle, the knee will be difficult to bend.

Flexion resistance: Resistance in the flexion direction, the lower the easier to flex.

Extension resistance: Resistance in the extension direction, the lower the easier to extend.

3.2. Adjust Parameters

To adjust the parameters, please follow these steps: 

  1.  Via Dashboard tab, tap the configure button. 
  2. In the Configure page use the sliders to adjust the settings. We suggest you start with: 
    1. Target Angle
    2. Flexion Resistance
    3. Extension Resistance
  4. Save the settings by tapping the save button in top right. 

Using the Intuy Mode

How to ski, snowboard, or skate is out of the scope of this tutorial. Intuy Modes are made to emulate the behavior of the human counterpart as much as possible. It is important that the user learns skiing, snowboarding, or skating from a professional trainer.
