Abstract

Recent developments in adaptive manufacturing have enabled the design of smart knee implants by combining additive manufacturing, embedded sensing technologies, and artificial intelligence (AI). These implants facilitate continuous assessment of implant performance and patient biomechanics, while AI-based data analysis assists in identifying potential complications and supports personalized postoperative rehabilitation. This paper reviews recent advances in sensor-integrated knee implants from an adaptive manufacturing perspective, highlighting their potential to improve surgical precision, implant longevity, and clinical outcomes. Current engineering challenges and future research directions are also discussed.
