he foot part was attached with the velcro stripes as shown in Figure 1(a). The shank and foot parts were connected to each other via the hinged joint and the actuator. The hinge joints, as well as the rod’s attachment joint to the foot part of the AFO, consists of spherical ball bearings which are characterized with low friction. This solution allow to compensate nonlinearities, and to control the tilting of a patient. The forcer of the actuator was attached with a trunnion joint to the shank part. This attachment point was optimized so that the AFO would be as compact as possible and would be able to achieve the required range of motion.
