Apparently, sensors read body movements and send info to a chip in the knee that regulates the fit and or movement of the artificial leg, making it much, much more comfortable and effective for the user. She's only second person to get one in north Alabama. She's hardly ever used artificial leg before because they've never seemed to help / Jason Alford / Eric Anderson / Keith Watson |
