The purpose of this research is to create a functional prototype for the lower limb orthosis, respectively the knee studied in the project "Bionic Orthosis for the Lower Limb", where a study of the existing needs on the market was carried out and several concepts were developed from which the optimal one was chosen. This research is about designing, manufacturing and testing a prototype orthosis and making it more useful by creating a mechatronic system that allows the patient to constantly observe his health. The conclusion of this research is to obtain a functional prototype, who will be improved in a future research to reach an optimized version of the orthosis.
