A Preliminary Study of Ankle Variable Hybrid Above-knee Prostheses

Year: 2019

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: This study is a preliminary study to solve problems in gait imbalance at slope ways and low ramps with ankle variable hybrid above-knee prostheses. For the purpose of implementing ankle variable control, the stance phase in gait was determined as a step-by-step manner and the threshold values were derived through the decision tree learning method based on inertial sensor data in verifying the swing phase. It can be used to perform the ankle variable control. The control of the hybrid above-knee prosthesis was demonstrated by measuring butterfly diagrams on a low ramp for verifying the gait balance in the test ramp.
