Ottobock C-Leg 4 Microprocessor Knee

The Ottobock C-Leg is a microprocessor-controlled knee prosthesis. Introduced to the world in , the C-Leg was the first prosthesis system to intelligently control and adapt to an individual&#;s gait. The C-Leg uses hydraulic cylinders to control knee flexing. Sensors send information to the microprocessor controlling how much resistance should be provided by the cylinders. The microprocessor receives information from the sensors 50 times a second, effectively adjusting itself in real-time. The microprocessor can also secure the stance phase. The result is a system that recognizes which phase of gait the user is in and reacts accordingly. This keeps the knee of the user stable when weight is put on it but allows free-swinging as the user steps through. C-Leg technology offers the advantages of permanent stance phase control, the ability to weight the prosthesis during flexion, dynamic alignment, less energy expenditure while walking, and relief for the sound side and the rest of the body.

More Information

C-Leg 4

Bluetooth® 
The C-Leg 4's integrated Bluetooth® technology means that it can communicate directly with your devices, allowing it to connect and disconnect with ease.

Inertial Motion Unit (IMU)
Inside the C-Leg 4 sits an IMU made up of gyroscope and acceleration sensors - this allows the knee's processes to be measured and controlled based on motion analysis.

Hydraulic Unit 
The C-Leg 4's intelligent hydraulic unit is responsible for controlling the knee, continuously modifying resistance against flexion and extension during the stance and swing phase, responding to the needs of the patient.

New Carbon Frame Design 
Constructed using strong, high-grade and lightweight carbon, to carry you through daily life and protect the electronics - whilst the hydraulic unit and the battery lie inside the housing of the knee.
