SocketMaster project: an optimised prosthetic socket for lower limb amputees!

SocketMaster project has developed new techniques for the design of an optimised prosthetic socket for lower limb amputees – by integrating micro sensors into a SocketMaster tool which can help prosthetists achieve fast, customised design and manufacture of prosthetic sockets for lower limb (trans-femoral and trans-tibial) amputees. The project partners are: TWI, Innora Robotics and Automation SA, Fondazione Bruno Kessler, Veneto Nanotech SCPA, Polkom Badania SP ZOO, Sensing Future Technologies Lda, University of Surrey and The London Prosthetic Centre. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 645239.
