A wide-ranging team of current and former BADGER Lab members published our long-developing work on the semi-active Two-Axis ‘Daptable Ankle (TADA). This is one of our signature achievements, creating an ankle that can control its motion in both sagittal and frontal planes, but semi-actively – it moves during swing phases, and passively locks in stance phase. Congratulations to all the contributors! Stay tuned for more developments on later generations of this prosthesis.
