Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Marissa Cowan"
- Marissa Cowan's recent research focuses on advancing control methodologies for powered robotic knee prostheses, aiming to enhance the mobility and user agency of amputees.
- Her work emphasizes the importance of volitional control and adaptive mechanisms, allowing prostheses to function more intuitively across various activities, including stair climbing, level ground ambulation, and traversing uneven terrains.
- Cowan's studies demonstrate the need for unified control systems that can seamlessly adjust to the user's intended movement, thereby improving clinical viability and the overall user experience with powered lower-limb prostheses.
