Abstract: The disclosure describes an adjustable modular prosthesis system comprising of repeating and interconnecting modular linkages. The modular linkages can be configured in a number of ways to form a network of modular linkages that comprise an adjustable custom socket around the limb of a user. The disclosed system further comprises a tensioning system that allows a user to control the socket's fit around their limb. The disclosed prosthesis system has a very low unique part count, may be mass-produced at low cost, and provides easy-to-use means of adjusting the shape and size of the socket to correspond with changes in a user's limb.
Abstract: A tissue-prosthesis interface sensor system used to measure pressure values exerted across the surface of the limb. The system provides a high-speed method of measuring pressure values through sensors located on the surface of a wearer's skin.
