Abstract: A system and method associated with the movement of a limb. In one example, the system, such as a prosthetic or orthotic system, includes an actuator (116) that actively controls, or adjusts, the angle between a foot unit (104) and a lower limb member (102). A processing module may control movement of the actuator (116) based on data obtained from a sensor module. For instance, sensing module data may include information relating to the gait of a user and may be used to adjust the foot unit to substantially mimic the movement of a natural, healthy ankle. The system may further accommodate, for example, level ground walking, traveling up/down stairs, traveling up/down sloped surfaces, and various other user movements. In addition, the processing module may receive user input or display output signals through an external interface.; For example, the processing module may receive a heel height input from the user.

Abstract: During the drive of a stage (WST), positional information in a movement plane of the stage (WST) is measured by three encoders (Enc1, Enc2, and Enc3) that include at least one each of an X encoder and a Y encoder of an encoder system, and a controller switches the encoders used for a measurement of positional information of the stage (WST) in the movement plane from the encoders (Enc1, Enc2, and Enc3) to encoders (Enc4, Enc2, and Enc3) so that the position of the stage (WST) in the movement plane is maintained before and after the switching. Therefore, although the switching of the encoders used for controlling the position of the stage is performed, the position of the stage in the movement plane is maintained before and after the switching, and a correct linkage becomes possible.
