Interventions
DEVICE

Passive-elastic prosthetic foot

The investigators will measure the biomechanics (motion, forces, and muscle activity) and metabolic rates while subjects walk using their own passive-elastic prosthesis with and without visual feedback of peak propulsive force targets.

DEVICE

Powered ankle-foot prosthesis

The investigators will measure the biomechanics (motion, forces, and muscle activity) and metabolic rates while subjects walk using a battery-powered ankle-foot prosthesis with and without visual feedback of peak propulsive force targets.
