Lower-limb amputees expend more energy to walk than non-amputees and have an elevated risk of secondary disabilities. Insufficient push-off by the prosthetic foot may be a contributing factor. We aimed to systematically study the effect of prosthetic foot mechanics on...

IMU-Based Wrist Rotation Control of a Transradial Myoelectric Prosthesis
This paper describes a control method intended to facilitate improved control of a myoelectric prosthesis containing a wrist rotator. Rather than exclusively utilize electromyogram (EMG) for the control of all myoelectric components (e.g., a hand and a wrist), the proposed...

Depth Sensing for Improved Control of Lower Limb Prostheses
We propose the addition of environmental sensing, in the form of depth sensing, to the control of powered, lower-limb prostheses. Currently, the prediction of which locomotion mode-based controller to use has been performed using EMG from the residual limb and...
