Abstract: An actuatable prosthesis device, comprising at least one drive, an electronic data processing device, and at least one sensor assembly for arranging on a body part of a prosthesis wearer. The at least one sensor assembly is designed to detect body signal patterns, and the electronic data processing device is designed to actuate the at least one drive on the basis of a detected body signal pattern such that the prosthesis devicecarries out a prosthesis movement assigned to the body signal pattern wherein at least two sets of body signal patterns and prosthesis movements assigned to each body signal pattern are stored on the electronic data processing device, and at least one trigger signal which switches over between the sets is assigned to the sets.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for evaluating usage data of at least one orthopaedic device which is equipped with sensors for detecting properties, states, or changes in properties or states, wherein the sensors are connected to a transmitter directly or via a storage device and the transmitter transmits the sensor data provided by the sensors to an evaluation unit in a computer network in which the sensor data is processed.

Abstract: A method of operating a multi-functional limb movement auxiliary device comprising a plurality of actuators configured to move, upon activation, limb movement auxiliary device members in at least two independent degrees of freedom, a bio-signal sensing unit that is configured to acquire bio-signals indicative of motor activity, a control unit configured to receive and evaluate the acquired bio-signals, the method comprising steps of acquiring bio-signals from the user of the limb movement auxiliary device, applying a novelty detection method (ND) for comparing digitally converted, acquired bio-signals with calibration bio-signals, and, based on a result of the comparison, for assigning a similarity measure to the acquired, digitally converted bio-signals, applying at least one sequential estimator (SEQ-E) to the acquired, digitally converted bio-signals, if the assigned similarity measure is equal to or larger than a pre-determined threshold value, applying at least one simultaneous estimator (SIM-E) to th
