Abstract:
1. A computer-based system for dynamic alignment of a prosthetic limb for a human subject configured therewith, the computer-based system comprising: a measurement system for obtaining a patient human motion capture record of a prosthesis-equipped human subject in motion; a motion database comprising a plurality of reference human motion capture records that correspond with a plurality of known prosthetic alignment errors; a motion blending engine configured for blending said reference human motion capture records, said blending including at least one of weighting and combining said reference capture records, to produce a predicted human motion capture record; and a computer configured for comparing the predicted human motion capture record with the patient human motion capture record, said computer being configured to calculate from the comparison a prosthesis alignment error correction for the prosthesis-equipped subject.
