About

Prosthetics is the interdisciplinary field of study and applied science focused on the design, development, fabrication, and application of artificial devices (prostheses) to replace missing body parts or augment existing biological function. It investigates biomechanical principles, material science, and human-machine interfaces to create devices that restore physical capabilities, improve mobility, or enhance cosmetic appearance for individuals with anatomical loss or impairment.
