dc.description.abstract

Animated Prosthetics has combined recentadvances in battery chemistry with a microcomputer control systern and a unique method of battery charging to provide new products for the externally powered upper extremity patient. The result of this combinationis an energy efficient system that offers the prosthetist many power and control options to customize the prosthesis. This technology benefits the patient by providing a prosthesis that has improved cosmetics, added capabilities, longer wear time, and fast recharge cycles. New diagnostic tools allow monitoring and configuration of the system even while the patient is wearing the prosthesis.
