prosthetic engineering

Prosthetic engineering involves designing and creating devices that replace or enhance missing or damaged body parts, such as limbs. Engineers develop these devices using advanced materials and technology to mimic the function and appearance of natural limbs. This includes integrating systems like sensors, motors, and control algorithms to allow users to move and interact more naturally. The goal is to improve quality of life by providing functional, comfortable, and durable solutions tailored to each individual’s needs through a combination of biomechanics, materials science, and electronic engineering.
