A prosthetic device includes a phalanges portion, a metatarsals portion that is movably coupled to the phalanges portion, an ankle portion that is movably coupled to the metatarsals portion, and a calcaneus portion that is movably coupled to the ankle portion.

An autonomous wearable leg device employs an array of sensors embedded along a support area, whereby a controller can generate a controlling command and send a controlling command to a prosthetic, orthotic, exoskeletal or wearable component to thereby control the prosthetic, orthotic, exoskeletal or wearable component. A method for controlling autonomous wearable device collects kinetic signals from an array of sensors embedded in a prosthetic, orthotic or exoskeletal component, wherein all values are extracted from at least one feature of the collected kinetic signals, which are applied to a controller that generates a controlling command that is sent to the prosthetic, orthotic exoskeletal component to thereby control the prosthetic, orthotic or exoskeletal component during a portion of a gait cycle.

A prosthetic device is provided including (a) an ankle component, (b) a foot component coupled to the ankle component, wherein the foot component has a longitudinal length extending at least partially along a sagittal plane of a user when the prosthetic device is in use, wherein the foot component has a thickness extending at least partially along a transverse plane of a user when the prosthetic device is in use, and (c) a coupling mechanism positioned between the foot component and the ankle component, wherein the coupling mechanism couples a rotation of the foot component with respect to the sagittal plane to a rotation of the foot component with respect to the transverse plane.

An actuator for a prosthetic digit is provided. The actuator comprises a driven, mobile tendon tensioner to which a tendon can be attached. The tensioner being movable along a shaft in either direction so as to place tension on the tendon or to relax the tendon.

A prosthetic digit is provided and comprises one or more channels through which tendon-like members can pass to cause flexing of a joint. The channel/s have a mouth at each end thereof, the mouths being rounded, whereby in use to spread the normal tendon force over a larger area, thereby reducing the pressure.

A prosthetic joint can include a first attachment member and a second attachment member coupled to the first attachment member. The second attachment member can include a cylindrical chamber. The prosthetic joint can include a fixation system disposed within the cylindrical chamber comprising at least one cam. The prosthetic joint can have an unlocked configuration, wherein in the unlocked configuration the first attachment member and the second attachment member can rotate relative to each other. The prosthetic joint can have a locked configuration, wherein in the locked configuration the first attachment member is substantially prevented from rotating relative to the second attachment member.

A mounting bracket for a prosthetic foot configured to attach to a residual limb, comprising an upper member, a lower member and compression torsion joint. The upper member comprises an upper flange, a mating post, and mounting portion configured to attach to the residual limb. The lower member comprises a mating portion, a lower flange, and a mounting portion configured to attach to the prosthetic foot. The compression torsion joint couples the upper member to the lower member and is configured to limit the vertical movement and torsional movement of the upper member with respect to the lower member.

A prosthetic foot device (1) having a longitudinal direction (L) and a transverse direction (T) and comprising a base spring blade (2), an ankle spring blade (3) being made from a composite material comprising glass fibers and a heel spring blade (4), the base spring blade (2) and the ankle spring blade (3) being connected in a forefoot region (5) of the prosthetic foot device (1), the base spring blade (2) and the heel spring blade (4) being connected in a heel region (7) of the prosthetic foot device and the ankle spring blade (3) and the heel spring blade (4) being connected in an ankle region (9) of the prosthetic foot device.

Systems and method for monitoring gait dynamics are disclosed. The performance of an orthotic or prosthetic device or other device associated with a limb may be measured based on the resistance of a bending sensor. Data from the sensors is gathered or processed, particularly for purposes of alignment, safety, failure, usage, selection, and artificial proprioception. Information relating to the device may be outputted visually or auditorily to an individual.
