Abstract

The idea of this project was to research prosthetic leg designs in an effort to create a below-the-knee prosthetic device. The goal was to come up with a device that could be used in third world countries where the need is most considerable. In the past year we have come up with a design and are still in the process of testing the leg. We did not finish as fast as we would have liked, and we are still working on additional testing before we can present our idea to the scholarly community.
