The paper is in the field of Bio Medical
Engineering. It is focused on rehabilitation of above knee amputees through the
implementation of a design that is simple enough to facilitate them carry out
their daily routine tasks (walk, sit and stand) with ease. A working model of
the gait adaptive robotic leg was developed using the various techniques of bio
medical and mechatronics engineering. Amongst the phases of human gait the
swing phase posture was modeled for working out the kinematics of robotic leg.
The technology
now-a-days has sufficiently benefited the developed countries as they made it
so as to fill the mould of their lifestyle, quiet fair for them as they worked
hard for achieving that. On the other hand, this boom of technology has not
only comforted the researchers of the developed countries but has also provided
the developing countries with readymade products. This is showing an alarming
situation and therefore, needs a wakeup call for the researchers of the
developing countries to come up with at least what they can by utilizing the
available resources, otherwise the technology gap will continue to rise.
This
research deals with active and passive prosthetic limb designs. Though both the
approaches address the operating characteristics of a particular structure
under study but the difference lies in the way they replicate the structure.
The structure designed in active prosthetic limb design is quiet close to real
structure as compared to the passive prosthetic limb design and this fact makes
the implementation of former type expensive whereas the later approach stands
inexpensive instead. This paper reflects a mixture of both the limb design
approaches and tends to motivate the researchers of the developing countries to
unveil the creative ideas of their mind and try to design a product within the
resources available to them.
