Measure each side
Instrumented cycling can reveal force, power and left/right contribution instead of reducing a session to one total output.
// ABOUT APAD
Engineering around
human asymmetry.
APAD began with a simple problem: two legs do not always contribute equally, yet conventional cycling systems often treat them as if they do. Our work brings sensing, adaptive control and connected data into cycling platforms for rehabilitation, performance and research.

THE APAD IDEATwo sides.
Two sides.
One adaptive system.
APAD is built around the relationship between the rider, bilateral measurement and responsive control—not around a single aggregate number.

OUR DIRECTIONFrom research prototype
From research prototype
to a two-platform ecosystem.
APAD research has demonstrated asymmetric torque assistance and instrumented cycling measurement. Today, the product direction extends that foundation into two distinct experiences: an upright performance platform and a supported rehabilitation platform.
Respond intelligently
Adaptive assistance and resistance create a path toward sessions shaped around the rider rather than a fixed symmetric demand.
Connect the session
APAD's product vision links ride-level information with longitudinal review for training, clinical oversight and research workflows.
RESEARCH FOUNDATION
Built from measurable biomechanics.
Reported across three assistance/intensity conditions in the published APAD prototype study with healthy participants.
Reported for instrumented cycling measures across repeated incremental and constant-load sessions in subsequent research.
Performance for active cycling insight; Recovery for supported rehabilitation and connected care.
Research findings describe studied prototypes and protocols and should not be interpreted as established clinical efficacy for every APAD configuration or patient population.
