Design of a Testing Fixture for the Characterization and Modeling of a Powered Prosthetic Ankle Using a Lorentz Force Actuator
Developments in prosthetic ankles have been improving amputee gaits, gradually approaching a more normal, non-amputee gait as designs develop. Currently, powered ankle prosthetics, or bionic ankles, hold the potential to mold the amputee gait much closer to its biological counterpart. This requires...
