Abstract
Prosthetic clinical experience indicates many veterans suffer from lack of
endurance, non-symmetrical gait, and high levels of effort while simply walking
at their self-selected pace. The integration of an artificial musculo-tendon
actuator into a below-knee prosthesis has the potential to greatly improve
amputee gait by providing the missing propulsive force of the ankle musculature.
