A dynamic injury protection system and method for monitoring tissue activity surrounding a joint and automatically supporting the movement of the joint to prevent injuries to and around the joint in response to the monitored activity. The dynamic injury protection system and method is implemented through a protective sleeve assembly having a sleeve base, sensor system, control system, and locking mechanism. When in place on a target joint, the sensor system operates to assess the activity of tissue surrounding the target knee and generate electrical signals corresponding to the tissue activity while the control system selectively causes the locking system the sleeve base to restrict movement of the target joint based on a comparison of assess activity and threshold baselines. Accordingly, the protective sleeve assembly operates to automatically initiate a protective movement restriction on a target joint wherever a dangerous level of stress is sensed. |
