"Smart" prosthetic legs can help amputees achieve a natural walking gait, but it's done through robotic sensors and algorithms that drive the limb forward at predetermined rates. A better way would be ...

Thanks to a neural interface, people can move this bionic limb naturally—just by thinking about it. When someone loses part of a leg, a prosthetic can make it easier to get around. But most ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. The leg provided the largest gains when ...
