  1. 1. Real-time adaptation of robotic knees using reinforcement control

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Leifur Daníel Sigurðarson; [2023]
    Keywords : Machine learning; deep reinforcement learning; transfer learning; medical device; prosthetic; prosthesis; controls; human-in-the-loop; Maskininlärning; djup förstärkningsinlärning; överföringsinlärning; medicinsk utrustning; protes; kontroller; människa-i-loopen;

    Abstract : Microprocessor-controlled knees (MPK’s) allow amputees to walk with increasing ease and safety as technology progresses. As an amputee is fitted with a new MPK, the knee’s internal parameters are tuned to the user’s preferred settings in a controlled environment. READ MORE

  3. 2. Quality of Life of Lower Limb Amputees in Sweden: A Comparative Cross-sectional Study

    University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för hälsovetenskap

    Author : Karolin Lindgren Westlund; [2021]
    Keywords : Amputerad; Funktionshinder; Deltagande; Livskvalité; Protes; WHOQOL-BREF;

    Abstract : Bakgrund: Mycket av tidigare forskning som har inkluderat personer med amputation på nedre extremiteten har varit fokuserad på gång och balans och på tillfredställelse med protes. Fler faktorer påverkar livskvalité och välmående än enbart avsaknad av funktionshinder. READ MORE

  4. 3. Effective Optimization of Deployment for Wearable Sensors in Transfemoral Prosthesis

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)

    Author : SURANJAN RAM OTTIKKUTTI; [2020]
    Keywords : Sensors; globaloptimization; geneticalgorithms; patternsearch; transducers; transfemoralamputation; Sensorer; global optimering; genetiska algoritmer; mönstersökning; transduktorer; transfemoral amputation;

    Abstract : Transfemoralor above-the-knee amputees face discomfort in their prothesis primarily due to irregular distribution of pressure and shear forces in the Socket-stump interface (SSI). To quantify this discomfort it is necessary to first determine the pressure distribution in the SSI using sensors. READ MORE

  5. 4. Exploratory Study on Lower Limb Amputee Patients : Use of IMUs to Monitor the Gait Quality During the Rehabilitation Period

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemi, bioteknologi och hälsa (CBH)

    Author : Aude Barthélemy; [2019]
    Keywords : Gait analysis; Lower Limb Amputee; IMU; Gait quality; Rehabilitation;

    Abstract : Specific rehabilitation is a key period for a lower-limb amputee patient. While learning how to walk with a prosthesis, the patient needs to avoid any gait compensations that may lead to future comorbidities. READ MORE

  6. 5. Can an insole measure torsion in two different types of prosthetic feet?

    University essay from Högskolan i Jönköping/HHJ. Ortopedteknisk plattform

    Author : Bjarki Hjálmarsson; [2018]
    Keywords : Prosthetics; Vebitosolution; Kinetic; Torsion;

    Abstract :     Introduction: There have not been any prosthetic feet available that can match an intact foot in functionality. Little focus has been on research on prosthetic foot performance in frontal plane motions and while most have investigated sagittal plane motions. READ MORE
