Crutches are walking aids used by individuals with mobility impairments, such as leg injuries or post-surgical conditions. However, improper use of crutches, especially incorrect movement positioning, can cause discomfort and even increase the risk of further injury. Therefore, a system is needed to detect and monitor the movement position of crutches in real time.This study aims to design and implement a crutch movement position detection system using an SW-420 vibration sensor based on an Arduino Uno microcontroller. The method used in this research is Research and Development (R&D), which includes the stages of needs identification, system design, prototype development, as well as system testing and analysis.The developed system consists of an SW-420 vibration sensor as input, an Arduino Uno as the data processor, a 16x2 LCD as the display media, and a buzzer as a sound indicator.
