Benefits of a microprocessor-controlled prosthetic foot for ascending and descending slopes
BACKGROUND: Prosthetic feet are prescribed for persons with a lower-limb amputation to restore lost mobility. However, due to limited adaptability of their ankles and springs, situations like walking on slopes or uneven ground remain challenging. This study investigated to what extent a microprocess...
