• Hybrid Control of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2006, methodology): “Second, a series of high specific power and specific energy power supplies were developed that were small enough to make BLEEX a true fieldoperational system ( McGee, Raade, and Kazerooni 2004; Raade and Kazerooni 2004; Amundsen et al. 2005).”
• On the mechanical design of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2005, background): “The knee requires significant power when ascending stairs (instead of absorbing power like it does during level walking) [23].”
• Powered ankle-foot prosthesis to assist level-ground and stair-descent gaits (2008, background): “For stair-descent ambulation, a normal human ankle behaves as a damper to absorb a significant amount of potential energy during the early stance period (Gates, 2004; McFadyen & Winter, 1988; Riener et al., 2002).”
• Design and Control of a Powered Transfemoral Prosthesis (2008, methodology): “Though the authors are not aware of any prior work on the development of a powered knee and ankle prosthesis, prior work does exist on the development of powered knee transfemoral prostheses and powered ankle transtibial prostheses.”
• On the Biomimetic Design of the Berkeley Lower Extremity Exoskeleton (BLEEX) (2005, background): “In particular these mockups were effective in determining the minimum required range of motion of each joint to allow sufficient maneuverability for common tasks such as walking, stairclimbing [7] and squatting.”
• Control strategies for active lower extremity prosthetics and orthotics: a review (2015, positive): “It is duly noted that the power output characteristics vary substantially between the hip, knee, and ankle during a given activity [18].”
