A novel surgical technique could dramatically improve walking for people with below-the-knee amputations and help them better control their prosthetics. A study published Monday in Nature Medicine ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...

A new technology could reduce NHS waiting lists for prosthetic legs by half, a study has found. The software personalises prosthetic leg fittings based on data from previous patients. The data-driven ...

"Smart" prosthetic legs can help amputees achieve a natural walking gait, but it's done through robotic sensors and algorithms that drive the limb forward at predetermined rates. A better way would be ...

NC State’s team is pushing prosthetic technology forward, combining mechanical assistance with artificial intelligence to ...

Amputees have been outfitted with a prosthesis that is integrated with muscle and bone. The new creation allows patients to walk faster and avoid obstacles better than they could with past prostheses.

People with leg amputations were able to control their prosthetic limbs with their brains in a significant scientific advance that allows for a smoother gait and enhanced ability to navigate obstacles ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. The leg provided the largest gains when ...
