Official Title: Assessment of a Microprocessor Ankle for Low Mobility Individuals
Brief Summary:
This research is being done to conduct a preliminary investigation into a new prosthetic microprocessor controlled (MPC) ankle, called the Damping, Stiffness, and Repositioning (DSR) ankle.The DSR ankle is a new design to support a person while they walk on both even and uneven ground, as well as with bending the ankle for safe foot clearance while a person takes a step.In particular, in this study we are interested in seeing how this type of new device may benefit people who are rated as a K2-level ambulator.
