Abstract
To provide controlled amounts of resistance to movement in exercise equipment or in orthotic devices, a control module (30A) (30B) has cooperating resistance elements (132) (134). The force between the elements (132) (134) is varied in accordance with the position of the elements (132) (134) with respect to each other. For example the control module (30A) (30B) can connect two splints (26A) (28A) of a knee brace (14) so that the resistance to flexion and extension are programmed in accordance with the position of the leg and thigh with respect to each other.
