Abstract
In this study, the concept of the Internet of Things is referenced in the lower prosthetic damping controller. Through wireless communication, the wearer can use the mobile phone to directly control the set value of the damping coefficient. During the travel, the damping controller calculates the walking speed between the three axes. The damping coefficient is automatically adjusted by the closed feedback control model, so that the air pressure in the lower limb joints is automatically adjusted to a comfortable range so that the wearer can perform more rapid movement and get a more comfortable feeling, and retain personal dignity.
