Biomechanical sensor data trains AI to predict preferred prosthesis ankle stiffness, cutting lengthy manual tuning for each user.
Asymmetrical clamping discs and jamming rollers hold gripping force after power loss while allowing free rotation and simpler manufacture.
Permanent magnets lock heel height settings in a prosthetic or orthotic joint actuator, preventing drift while allowing precise adjustment.
Opposing magnets lock or release a prosthetic actuator, enabling precise heel height adjustment without sacrificing joint stability.
Circumferential locking elements secure a prosthetic liner insert with easy release, reducing slack, noise, and incorrect locking.
Opposed magnets lock or release an actuator so prosthetic and orthotic joints can adjust heel height and length with stable positioning.
Uses jamming rollers and asymmetric disc recesses to lock against external force without continuous power while allowing free rotation in one direction.
