A Subvision System for Enhancing the Environmental Adaptability of the Powered Transfemoral Prosthesis

IEEE Transactions on Cybernetics, 2020
Visual information is indispensable to human locomotion in complex environments. Although amputees can perceive the environmental information by eyes, they cannot transmit the neural signals to prostheses directly. To augment human–prosthesis interaction,

A CNN-Based Method for Intent Recognition Using Inertial Measurement Units and Intelligent Lower Limb Prosthesis

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering, 2019
Powered intelligent lower limb prosthesis can actuate the knee and ankle joints, allowing transfemoral amputees to perform seamless transitions between locomotion states with the help of an intent recognition system.

Amputation and Prosthesis

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Food Animal Practice, 1996
Amputation of a limb is a drastic therapy in cattle and should be considered as a last resort in the treatment of limb injuries. Even though the surgical technique for amputation is simple, daily limb management, prosthesis manufacture, and adaptation of the animal to the prosthesis are difficult and time consuming.

Prosthesis for the newborn

The Journal of Prosthetic Dentistry, 1969
Abstract In all the infants with the Pierre Robin syndrome that I have treated, the appliance was no longer needed after about two months of use. In those with a midline cleft, the part of the prosthesis closing the lip and supporting the nose is removed when surgery is performed on the lip.

Retinal Prosthesis

Annual Review of Biomedical Engineering, 2005
▪ Abstract  Retinal prostheses represent the best near-term hope for individuals with incurable, blinding diseases of the outer retina. On the basis of the electrical activation of nerves, prototype retinal prostheses have been tested in blind humans and have demonstrated the capability to elicit the sensation of light and to give test subjects the ...

Ocular prosthesis

Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 2007
Loss of an eye or a disfigured eye has a far-reaching impact on an individual's psyche'. Additionally it affects one's social and professional life. Cosmetic rehabilitation with custom made prosthetic devices gives such individuals professional and social acceptance and alleviates problems.

A Biomechanical Comparison of the Thrust Plate Prosthesis and a Stemmed Prosthesis [PDF]

open access: possibleHIP International, 2011
The thrust plate prosthesis (TPP) is a neck preserving femoral component in total hip arthroplasty (THA) which may facilitate more precise biomechanical reconstruction of the hip. The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical results of the TPP with a conventional THA.

Design, development, and testing of a lightweight hybrid robotic knee prosthesis

Int. J. Robotics Res., 2018
We present a lightweight robotic knee prosthesis with a novel hybrid actuation system that enables passive and active operation modes. The proposed hybrid knee uses a spring-damper system in combination with an electric motor and transmission system ...

Direct 3D Printing of Flexible Nasal Prosthesis: Optimized Digital Workflow from Scan to Fit

Journal of Prosthodontics, 2018
A maxillofacial prosthesis is a successful treatment modality to restore missing facial parts. Digital technologies and 3D printing are employed in constructing facial prostheses such as ears; however, their application is still partial, and final ...
