Ossur offers the Rheo Knee, a 30.000 dollar knee prosthetics, which is said to be the most advanced knee replacement system to date.
What distinguishes the Rheo Knee from other prosthetics is its combination of microprocessors and artificial intelligence that learns, recognizes and adjusts to individual walking styles.
“Unlike existing hydraulic systems, this response offers customized levels of resistance (knee flexion) as, and only when, the individual needs it. That’s why walking effort is reduced to a minimum and motion is much smoother and more natural.”

Other advantages include decreased likeliness of the knee to buckle, as well as easy setup and calibration.
