Retractable Prosthesis for Transfemoral Amputees Using Series Elastic Actuators and Force Control [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 We present a highly functional and cost-effective prosthesis for transfemoral amputees that uses series elastic actuators. These actuators allow for accurate force control, low impedance and large dynamic range. The design involves one active joint at the knee and a passive joint at the ankle.
