6-axis performance test of a prosthetic foot

Customer problem

The customer wanted to know the effort and moments absorbed by an ankle prosthesis.

PMI solution

A 6-axis K6D sensor configured with a GSV8 acquisition system with 8 analogue channels allowing the configuration, visualisation and acquisition of measurements via the GSVmulti software installed on the client's PC.

Results

The data collected by the sensor: forces and moments are transmitted remotely to a computer, thus allowing the characterization of the efforts undergone by the prosthetic foot.
