Knee angle sensor

The knee angle sensor provides important data: It measures the flexion angle and angular velocity of the joint.

Electronic control unit

The integrated microprocessor receives and processes sensor signals. It controls the movement of the knee joint in real time.
ottobock c-leg Inertial motion unit (IMU)

Inertial motion unit (IMU)

The gyroscope and acceleration sensors allow the position and acceleration of the C-Leg in space to be measured. Prosthetic Control is based on motion analysis and additional force determination.
ottobock c-leg Hydraulic unit

Hydraulic unit

The hydraulic unit controls the C-Leg. It generates movement resistance for flexion and extension during the stance and swing phase.
ottobock c-leg carbon frame

New carbon frame design

In order to withstand the varied demands of everyday life, the frame is made of carbon – an especially strong, high-grade and lightweight material. The frame houses and protects the electronics, the hydraulic unit and the battery. Thanks to its new design, the C-Leg has a lower system height and therefore a larger fitting spectrum.
