Improving Amputee Endurance Over Activities of Daily Living with a Robotic Knee-Ankle Prosthesis: A Case Study

T. Kevin Best, Curt A. Laubscher, Ross J. Cortino, Shihao Cheng, Robert D. Gregg

IROS 2023poster

Robotic knee-ankle prostheses have often fallen short relative to passive microprocessor prostheses in time-based clinical outcome tests. User ambulation endurance is an alternative clinical outcome metric that may better highlight the benefits of robotic prostheses. However, previous studies were u…

Stair Ascent Phase-Variable Control of a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis

Ross J. Cortino, Edgar Bolívar-Nieto, T. Kevin Best, Robert D. Gregg

ICRA 2022poster

Passive prostheses cannot provide the net positive work required at the knee and ankle for step-over stair ascent. Powered prostheses can provide this net positive work, but user synchronization of joint motion and power input are critical to enabling natural stair ascent gaits. In this work, we bui…
