The last few years witnessed radical improvements in lower-limb prostheses. Researchers
have presented innovative solutions to overcome the limits of the first generation of …

Background and objectives Lower-limb wearable devices can significantly improve the
quality of life of subjects suffering from debilitating conditions, such as amputations …

Objective. Most existing machine learning models for myoelectric control require a large
amount of data to learn user-specific characteristics of the electromyographic (EMG) signals …

Control systems of robotic prostheses should be designed to decode the users' intent to
start, stop, or change locomotion; and to select the suitable control strategy, accordingly …

Despite recent advancements in prosthetic technology, lower-limb amputees often remain
limited to passive prostheses, which leads to an asymmetric gait and increased energy …

In lower limb prostheses, the physical interface constituted by the socket is a crucial
component for the device success. This work proposes a new design based on a rigid frame …

Stimulators are devices designed to activate muscles and nerves by allowing adjustment of
both the pulse duration and amplitude of their output. Over the past three decades …
