The Open-source Bionic Leg: Constructing and Controlling a Prosthesis Driven by AI

For decades, sci-fi movies have shown the promise of life with bionic limbs, but they are nowhere to be seen in today’s society. We have created an open-source bionic leg to help transform these robots from fiction to reality. This talk will focus on innovations in our design approach and showcase a leading AI-based control strategy for wearable robots. Finally, we’ll demo our open-source bionic leg in action with a participant on stage. Session Speakers: Levi Hargrove, Elliott Rouse (Session R11)
