Genium Knee

Product Overview

The Ottobock Genium microprocessor knee is a breakthrough in prosthetic technology, providing unprecedented freedom of movement for individuals with knee disarticulation, transfemoral amputation, or hip disarticulation.

Since its introduction in 2011, the Genium has continually evolved to deliver an increasingly natural gait pattern through intelligent, real-time sensor technology. Designed for mobility grades 3 and 4, with support for users up to 330.69 pounds, this advanced knee prosthesis enables users to navigate changing terrains, overcome obstacles, and climb stairs step-over-step with remarkable ease.

The Genium's intuitive functionality reduces compensating movements, providing targeted relief for the sound side and promoting long-term joint health. With weatherproof protection and customizable settings accessible through a smartphone app, the Genium allows users to focus on living life to the fullest without having to think about every step.

Features and Benefits

• Optimized Physiological Gait 2.0: Advanced sensor technology delivers a smooth, energy-efficient walking pattern that mimics natural knee function, reducing physical strain and promoting healthier movement.
• Real-Time Adaptive Response: Intelligent sensors calculate movement with incomparable accuracy, allowing the knee to recognize and respond to changes in terrain, inclines, and walking speeds.
• Stairs and Obstacles Function: Navigate stairs step-over-step and overcome everyday obstacles such as curbs with confidence and natural movement patterns.
• Intuitive or Deliberate Stance Options: Two different stance functions permit comfortable, secure resting on the prosthesis side, providing continual relief for the sound side and particularly beneficial for bilateral users.
• Stumble Recovery Feature: Enhanced safety through intelligent fall prevention technology that provides immediate stability when needed.
• Walk2Run Function: Automatically adapts when transitioning from walking to running for spontaneous short sprints in everyday situations.
• Weatherproof Design: IP rating of 67 provides protection against brief rain showers and splashed water for greater confidence in various weather conditions.
• Five Programmable MyModes: Customize settings for specific activities, with an expanded selection of options for individual modes that adapt to your unique lifestyle needs.
• Sitting Function: Intuitively recognizes sitting position and adapts knee resistance accordingly for comfort and natural movement when sitting down or standing up.
• User-Friendly Cockpit App: Control personal settings, check battery status, select MyModes, and adjust volume conveniently via a smartphone app compatible with both iPhone and Android devices.
• Activity Report: Track usage patterns and mobility data to optimize performance and rehabilitation progress.

This innovative prosthetic solution is designed to provide users with the highest degree of intuitive function, enabling them to move naturally through a full range of daily activities while reducing cognitive burden and promoting long-term physical health.
