An AI-powered resistance training system for physical therapy that uses adaptive smart weights with fluid-filled chambers.

The Wow Moment
A stroke survivor who hasn't been able to properly lift their arm for months puts on the FlowPuppet cuff and attempts a bicep curl. Initially, the weight feels impossibly heavy on one side, like a tilted boat. But as they adjust their form, the AI subtly redistributes the fluid resistance - suddenly, the movement becomes smooth and possible. Their physical therapist's jaw drops as they watch the patient complete 10 perfect reps, something they couldn't do before, with the weight practically guiding their arm into the right path.
