From the outside, this pair of robotic legs by a team of United States-based researchers may look like part of an experiment to see how lifelike scientists can make robots seem. But a key component ...

Researchers have developed a new algorithm that combines two processes for personalizing robotic prosthetic devices to both ...

An American content creator was shocked after trying robotic legs in China that let you walk and even run easily. China has always surprised us with innovation, but this time it has gone beyond by ...

The first pair of biologically accurate robot legs can walk like clumsy human babies placed on a treadmill — placing one foot in front of the other with surprising confidence. The robot legs work ...

Each leg can bend in multiple ways, lift, and move independently of the others to ensure that stability is maintained ...

A commercial robotic leg could potentially benefit both higher- and lower-mobility amputees, University of Michigan roboticists have shown for the first time. The leg provided the largest gains when ...

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. -- Born with cerebral palsy and diagnosed with spastic quadriplegia, Stephanie Debes, 25, thought she would be confined to a wheelchair for the rest of her life. But the Pleasant ...

Although robotic prosthetic legs do have some advantages over their conventional counterparts, they also have some drawbacks that keep them from entering wider use. A new prototype prosthesis, however ...

A University of Texas at Dallas professor applied robot control theory to enable powered prosthetics to dynamically respond to the wearer's environment and help amputees walk. In research available ...

Researchers at ETH Zürich are very good at keeping robots standing upright. Back in 2022, the school’s robotics team taught the quadrupedal ANYmal robot how to hike up mountains without falling over.
