Microprocessor Knees

Microprocessor Knee is a type of transfemoral prosthesis that integrates a microprocessor-controlled system to dynamically regulate knee joint movement during gait, distinguishing itself from passive prosthetic knees through real-time adaptation to walking speed, terrain, and user intent via embedded sensors and actuation algorithms.
