Based on usage of sensors, actuators, and control systems, there are three types of afos: All afos have the potential to manipulate the grf, but ‘gro’ is. Semi active, active, and passive afos.
Ground reaction orthosis (gro) is an afo designed to manipulate the ground reaction force (grf) at the knee. In general, afos successfully improve walking speed. In this work, a solid ankle foot orthosis drawn with solidworks using a 3d scanned leg has been used for fem simulation using ansys.
Research has shown that reduced second peak of grf, and thus instability, in cp is a common problem.2 in my opinion, when using afos, one objective is to achieve, as closely as.
