Energy generating artificial footIt's not easy walking on a prosthetic foot. Aside from the obvious difficulty of adjusting to an artificial limb, dragging around the weight of the foot exerts a lot of energy -- <b>23% more</b> than walking on a natural foot, to be exact. But a prototype foot developed by researchers at the University of Michigan makes it easier for amputees to move around normally by recycling kinetic energy generated while walking....<br><br><a href='https://inhabitat.com/energy-recycling-artificial-foot-created/'>READ ARTICLE</a>1
