Summary
This study tests a smart prosthetic leg that uses muscle signals from the user's thigh to control the knee and ankle. Ten adults with above-knee amputations will try the bionic leg on flat ground, stairs, and other real-world tasks. Researchers will measure how well users control the leg, how stable and symmetrical their walking is, and how natural the device feels. The goal is to improve future prosthetic designs for better everyday use.
