Powered ankle prostheses have been proven to improve the walking economy of transtibial amputees although these powered systems are usually…
Humans can accurately sense the position, speed, and torque of their limbs, even with their eyes shut. This sense, known as proprioception,…
Designed for mass manufacture and rapid deployment, we are building an open hardware, reusable, sterilizable, modular, and filter-media agn…
Lower extremity amputation leads to limitations of biological function of individuals, which leads to challenges remaining physically activ…
The design of next-generation bionic ankles and knees aims to improve bionic actuators on all metrics: range of motion, power density, band…
Mechanical, electrical, and dynamic control systems recreate biological behavior with synthetic hardware.
Recent advancements in orthopedic implants have made way for a new generation of bionic limbs that attach directly to the skeleton. Leverag…
The human ankle provides a significant amount of net positive work during the stance period of walking, especially at moderate to fast walk…
Using biologically inspired design principles, a biomimetic robotic knee prosthesis is proposed that uses a clutchable series-elastic actua…
Digital Materials are a way of designing and manufacturing. Rather than building large, monolithic, single-use components, we discretize th…
