E-MAG (Website) The E-MAG knee joint system offers wearers increased stability when standing. It features an electronically controlled lock activated by a small remote control to provide absolute stability in the stance phase. The lock is activated with the touch of a button, allowing the wearer to support themselves with both arms and stand safely at all times. The E-MAG's special feedback system also informs the wearer when the joint is opening.

Innovative Neurotronics WalkAide
WalkAide utilizes revolutionary Myo-Orthotics Technology to increase mobility, functionality and independence for patients experiencing Dropfoot, a condition caused by weakness or paralysis of the muscles that lift the front part of the foot. This device combines electrical stimulation with traditional bracing to restore the functionality of an impaired limb by recreating a natural nerve-to-muscle response.

Otto Bock WalkOn™ AFO (Website)
The WalkOn™ lower leg orthosis for patients with weak dorsiflexion helps raise the foot while the leg swings through forward. This prevents the foot from bending downwards, which causes the forefoot to drag during swing phase. The more efficient gait pattern reduces the risk of tripping or falling while improving the security of walking with a varied cadence. The orthosis is light and slim so that it fits inconspicuously under clothes.
