Boy Honored for Helping First Responders Save his Family
After a traffic accident, young Ege was the only one conscious when emergency responders arrived and helped them despite his own injuries.
Patient Story
Real Time Control of a Powered Prosthetic Leg Using Implanted EMG Signals with Sensory Feedback
We will conduct a first-in-human clinical trial to evaluate the effect of incorporating intramuscular EMG signals (obtained using a fully wireless implantable system), compared to surface EMG signals, on function ambulation and non-weight-bearing control of a powered leg prosthesis.
Research Project
Intuitively Controlled Virtual Reality System to Treat Phantom Limb Pain
We will develop a commercially viable VR rehabilitation system (called the Coapt PLP Management System) which can be deployed at home or in-clinic for individuals with upper or lower limb amputations.
Research Project
Intuitive Control of a Hybrid Prosthetic Leg During Ambulation
The objective of this research is to determine the clinical benefits of an innovative and lightweight powered leg controlled using our intent recognition framework in laboratory and community environments.
Age Range
18-95
Clinical Trial
Low-Cost Arm System
Prosthetic arm and hand suitable for individuals in the United States who lack adequate insurance or for people in low-income countries with no prosthetic care.
