Robert S Kistenberg1.   

Abstract

New technology and materials have advanced prosthetic designs to enable people who rely on artificial limbs to achieve feats never dreamed before. However, the latest and the greatest technology is not appropriate for everyone. The aim of this article is to present contemporary options that are available for people who rely on artificial limbs to enhance their quality of life for mobility and independence.
