Empower Microprocessor Foot

Empower is the only commercially available microprocessor foot with powered propulsion. By combining a mechatronic ankle joint with the high-energy carbon of the Taleo Low Profile foot, Empower imitates the lost muscle function that propels people forward.

Features and Benefits:

• Emulates lost muscle function by actively supplying energy at toe off1
• Active plantar flexion during loading of the limb provides extra comfort when walking and increased stability when walking downhill on slopes2
• Relief function for a more natural appearance when sitting and relief of residual limb
• Reduces joint forces and has been shown to reduce knee and lower back pain3
• Splashproof (IP24)
