C-Leg is now new and improved
Remember Captain Hook? Boy, what would he give to trade in that rusting appendage of his to get one of today’s newfangled bionic body parts. Case in point, the new and improved C-Leg from healthcare company Otto Bock. Targeting those in the armed forces who have experienced a loss of limbs, the C-Leg comes complete with a microprocessor controlled knee that is smart enough to adjust the hydraulic systems according to the current activity being performed. An included remote control enables the owner to switch modes, which includes the all new standing mode that takes away most of the weight off the good leg.
The C-Leg® is now even better. Based on the experience of users and practioners, we’re proud to introduce advanced features in this proven product. Check out some of the features which the new and improved C-Leg offers:
It is interesting to see medical science advance to such a stage today. Such prosthetics were basically unimaginable a couple of decades ago, and we could see more and more people like Will Smith in I, Robot sometime in the future. Bionic body parts FTW!
