Open Source Leg – Active Prosthetics
The OSL is an open-source platform that provides researchers with a foundation to initiate studies in the field of active prosthetics — i.e., prosthetic devices with integrated electric actuators — with minimal initial effort.
Conventional passive prostheses are unable to supply energy, which in healthy indiv
EmKiPro2 - Embodiment through AI-Driven Proprioception in Prosthetics
The core focus of the project is the development of a leg prosthesis that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to transmit external stimuli—triggered by pressure, touch, or changes in temperature—and simulate sensation in muscles and joints.
To generate data, so-called surrogate
ZEETA - State adaptation for single-track electric traction drives
The "ZEETA" project is concerned with an electrically powered single-track trailer that does not exert any force on the towing two-wheeler. The aim is to further promote the use of bicycles and thus make our mobility more sustainable. However, the design of such a trailer poses a m
