Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Prosthetic Foot EmulatorExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The Prosthetic Foot Emulator (PFE) is a customizable robotic prosthetic foot that can mimic commercial feet to predict how individual patients will respond to candidate feet. Participants will walk with the PFE using three different modes (emulating three commercial feet) under different walking conditions.
Group II: Commercially available prosthetic feetActive Control1 Intervention
Participants will walk under different walking conditions using three different commercial prosthetic feet.
