摘要: This paper presents the design and validation of a control system for pair powered knee ankle prostheses to be used as prosthetic intervention bilateral transfemoral amputees. The leverages communication between enhanced awareness stability, along with power generation at joints better restore biomechanical functionality in level ground walking. methodology employed is combination an impedance-based framework weight-bearing portions gait trajectory-based approach nonweight-bearing portions. was implemented on self-contained prostheses, ability provide walking assessed set experimental trials amputee subject. Specifically, data from these indicate that architecture kinematics reproduce healthy greater extent than subject's daily-use passive prostheses.
