Imagine a prosthetic knee system so smart that it automatically adapts to an individual’s walking style and environment, learning continuously and optimizing control over time.
The RHEO KNEE® is the world’s first microprocessor swing and stance knee system to utilize the power of artificial intelligence. Capable of independent thought, it learns how the user walks, recognizing and responding immediately to changes in speed, load and terrain.
The knee adapts to any situation, and not just within pre-set and limited parameters, enabling the individual to quickly regain confidence in his or her ability to walk where and how they choose.
The first product to incorporate Bionic Technology by Ossur, the knee was developed in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and takes its name from the magnetorheological fluid in the actuator that controls its motion. Simple to operate, the RHEO KNEE® is the most adaptable solution of its kind.
RHEO KNEE® product specifications, manuals and other technical support material, including reimbursement, available on ossur.com.
