From wooden legs to modern smart dentures
The German company Otto Bock has released a new version of the prosthesis called C-Leg. Looking at this miracle it is possible to say with confidence that the era of prostheses has come, which to some extent even surpass real limbs in their “indicators”.
The prosthesis is equipped with a microprocessor (in the knee), which is able to track the gait of a person 50 times per second and independently adjust the work of hydraulics for maximum comfort. In addition, the wireless device is included in the “device” kit, with which you can switch between different modes of operation.
The only disadvantage of a stunning development that can really replace a lost limb is cost. For the opportunity to regain the ability to move with real comfort will have to pay from $ 30 to $ 40 thousand.
