What
-
Developing an open-source robotic leg prosthesis that can be worn by people who have lost their knee and/or ankle
Why
-
To facilitate research in prosthesis control
-
To provide a common hardware platform across labs
-
To promote research beyond the lab- in the community and at home
How
-
By designing a portable, lightweight, and inexpensive robotic leg
-
By providing the necessary files, code, and instructions needed for researchers to build their own prosthesis
