Controlling a Powered Knee-Ankle Prosthesis over Variable-Incline Stair Ascent and Descent
Powered knee-ankle prostheses can offer benefits over conventional passive devices during stair locomotion by providing biomimetic net-positive work and active control of joint angles. However, many modern control approaches for stair ascent and descent are often limited by time-consuming hand-tuning of user/task-specific parameters, predefined trajectories that remove user volition, or heuristic approaches that cannot be applied to both stair ascent and descent. This work presents a phase-based hybrid kinematic and impedance controller (HKIC) that allows for semi-volitional, biomimetic stair ascent and descent at a variety of step heights. Experiments with above-knee amputee participants (N=2) validate that our HKIC controller produces biomimetic ascent and descent joint kinematics, kinetics, and work across four step height configurations. We also show improved kinematic performance with our HKIC controller in comparison to a passive microprocessor-controlled device during stair locomotion.
