University of Michigan unveils new research on robotic legs

Robotic prosthetic legs are rare to see. But a group of engineers at the University of Michigan believe their research of a commercial product shows promising results for both higher- and lower-mobility amputees. Working with Össur's Power Knee and custom control software, the team helped participants walk more symmetrically, reduce tripping risks and put less strain on their sound legs and hips. “A prosthesis is a very trust heavy thing,” Kevin Best, one of the study’s co-authors told Bridge Michigan. “We still saw benefits, even with that kind of disadvantage for the new device.” For more Michigan health news, subscribe to our newsletter using the QR code. #michigan #prosthetics #prostheticleg #shorts
