Build your own Open-Source Leg today!

The Open-Source Leg hardware is a robust and relatively inexpensive system that can be easily manufactured, assembled, and controlled. Through this website, researchers have access to downloadable hardware files so that they can enter the research field without having to design a prosthetic leg themselves. Ultimately, having a ubiquitous leg will help facilitate comparison between control strategies, potentially streamlining the field towards highly functional robotic prosthetic legs.

if i idly find more designs and projects like this endeavor, ill comment it and ping you

me and probably some other goats probably aren't the worst at designing custom components if modifications are needed.

im currently asking the AI to narrow down the shopping list. EKG muscle control is shockingly easy nowadays once you plug it into a raspberry pi and arduino

they're charging 500 bucks a pop for "neurostimulation" for hooking you up to one of these $300 chinese gadgets. they say they can help you create new neural patterns.
