Model-free robust adaptive integral sliding mode impedance control of knee-ankle-toe active transfemoral prosthesis.

Background: Wearing appropriate active prosthesis is the guarantee of daily life for amputees. Normally the controller of the traditional active transfemoral prosthesis is designed based on the mathematical model. The modelling error and the external interference will reduce the control accuracy of the system and make the prosthesis unable to operate in the desired trajectory.
