Mind-Controlled bionic leg helps amputees walk naturally
NCT ID NCT07204912
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a bionic leg that uses muscle signals from the user's residual limb to control the knee and ankle. Ten people with above-knee amputations will compare walking with this smart prosthesis versus their regular one. The goal is to see if the bionic leg feels more like a natural part of the body and improves stability and symmetry during everyday tasks like walking on level ground and climbing stairs.
