摘要: An orthotic device is disclosed. The may be adapted to attached a limb enable the replicate normal motion so that user regains substantially operation of limb. have frame system formed lightweight supportive material and configured receive user's limb, an electronically actuated muscle operatively connected for expanding contracting at predetermined levels mimic movement when functioning normally. also controller transmitting signals corresponding muscle, sensor controlled by actuating muscle.
