The Power Knee is the first motorized robotic prosthetic knee for above knee amputees. The knee provides enough power for the person using it to go at walking speeds, it helps when trying to climb stairs or ramps, and it responds to patterns of motions to help with natural motion. It is developed by the German company, "Ossur". It has been just approved by the German National Health System and is being sent out to its first users.
