C-Leg Prosthetic leg

C-Leg Prosthetic leg. THE FUTURE OF TOMORROW TODAY. How it works. The C-leg works with 50 sensors that sends feedback every second to a microprocessor inside the knee. Those sensors record stress levels inside the knee every .02 seconds.

  1. C-Leg Prosthetic leg THE FUTURE OF TOMORROW TODAY

  2. How it works • The C-leg works with 50 sensors that sends feedback every second to a microprocessor inside the knee. • Those sensors record stress levels inside the knee every .02 seconds. • The c-leg keeps knee stability, free swinging, and support when you need it.

  3. Visual Description 1 2 3 4.) Knee Angle Sensor: It constantly measure the angle and angle speed of the joints 4 1.)Pyramid Adapter: It connects the C-leg to the Prosthetic socket 5 5.) Hydraulic Cylinder: Controls the motion of the C-leg. 6 2.) Electronics: Algorithms based on thousands of gait cycles are built into the software 6.) Carbon Fiber Frame: Lightweight and super strong. It houses and protects the electronics, hydraulic unit, and the battery. 3.) Lithium-Ion Battery: Provides 40-45 hours of use. 7 7.) Tube Adapter with Moment Sensor: measures ankle movement from the heel-strike to the toe-off and lets the microprocessor know where the user is in the gait cycle.

  4. How it’s used Obviously it’s used for walking, but in what other ways can it be used? Amazingly it can be used for running, climbing, skiing, kicking, standing, driving, skating and cycling or any other everyday activities that you couldn’t do as a amputee. These each activity can be activated through 3 different modes. • First mode: optimized for walking. • Second mode: for doing strenuous activities. • Third mode: for standing still. All three of these modes are on a wireless remote control and are activated with the push of a button.
