This application allows the user to connect to specialized wireless devices designed to aid in the casting process for scoliosis body braces. The wireless devices (or "Brace Frame" devices) were developed by Dr. Edmond Lou and Fraaz Kamal at the University of Alberta. They are meant to be placed on the pressure pads of a casting frame while a patient is being fitted for a scoliosis brace. Using the app, the user can wirelessly adjust the pressure that each pad exerts on the patients body, and they can also read the X, Y, and Z coordinates for each pad. Note that this app is different from the Brace Monitor and Active Brace apps that are also available in the store.

Feature of this application include:

+ Connect up to four Brace Frame devices simultaneously.

+ Control the pressure of four separate pressure pads on the casting frame.

+ Read the X, Y, and Z coordinates of four separate pressure pads on the casting frame.

+ Monitor the battery voltage of each Brace Frame device.

+ Recalibrate the pressure sensor of the Brace Frame device if necessary.
