Testing MyLeg Prosthetic Leg in Action

With my colleague Gregorio who volunteered to test the MyLeg active transfemoral prosthetic leg. My involment in the project was mostly on developing the control architecture for the prosthetic leg. Also, I designed the electronics and selection of hardware components for developing the prosthetic leg from the scratch. My colleage Gregorio was in-charge of designing the leg and ensuring the mechanical capabilities of the leg is top-notch matching up and above the industrial standards.

In the picture below, thanks to our supervisior Dr. Prof. Raffaella Carloni for capturing this intense moment of us figuring our the parameters for the optimal performance. I can be seen actively programming the leg. I also made have a feature to control the prosthetic leg wirelessly.
