Abstract. Ankle joint injury is often caused due to sport activities or accidents. This makes it difficult for the daily life. Therefore, the rehabilitation of ankle joint plays an essential role, which helps patients to enhance their life qualities. Practicing physical therapy is an effective approach to aid the patients recover from injury. Currently, not only are the conventional physiotherapy methods used, but the application of hi-tech advancements, especially robots in physiotherapy, is increasingly ubiquitous and creates possible and optimistic results. This paper concentrates on the building of a supportive system for the low-cost physiotherapy and manipulating other devices by physical buttons. A mobile application programmed for smartphone displays the pieces of system information, which brings convenience to users. On the other hand, application is also connected to Bluetooth as showing the angle of device and controlling it with an intentional angle. The preliminary results of system consist of a model and a mobile smartphone application presented in this article. The proposed system operates exactly as design, this is promising for application with clinical trials on patients in the following studies
