How much does a genium X3 cost?

Price. According to our information, the Genium X3 typically sells for more than $100,000 US including the socket, prosthetic foot, and all prosthetist fees.

What does the Genium X3 do?

With the Genium X3, we have bundled this technology under the term “Optimised Physiological Gait” (OPG). It relieves strain on the entire locomotor system, improves wearer comfort and opens up entirely new freedom of movement for the amputee. This is an innovative and patented method to monitor all movement situations.

What is the best prosthetic knee?

The Genium X3 is the world’s most technologically advanced microprocessor knee, offering above-knee amputees the most natural gait possible.

When was the Genium X3 invented?

2011
The Genium X3 is based on the Genium that achieved a breakthrough in prosthetics in 2011. The technology of the Genium allows intuitive and natural motions even when walking backwards, walking up stairs step-over-step, walking at various speeds and stride lengths.

What can you do with the Ottobock Genium X3 knee?

The Genium X3 can be paired with standard mechanical feet, sports blades, bionic feet like Ottobock’s Meridium, and even the powered bionic Ottobock Empower Ankle. To make life even easier, Ottobock’s Quickchange adapter allows you to switch prosthetic feet in seconds, much as you would change a pair of shoes.

Is the Ottobock X3 prosthetic leg waterproof?

The X3 is waterproof (even against strong jets of water), and only corrosion-resistant components are used. High-quality materials protect the sensitive electronics in the prosthesis. The Genium X3 was assigned the highest possible protection class, IP 68.

How does the X3 prosthetic leg control work?

Prosthesis control is based on motion analysis and additional force measurement. To this end, sensors determine the position and acceleration of X3 leg prosthesis as well as the flexion angle and flexion angle speed in real time. The knee moment sensor supplies data regarding the knee moments that occur.

What kind of knee joint does Ottobock use?

New 3R60 knee joint technology with a low net weight adapts to the needs of the user and relieves strain on the residual limb, hip and spine. The Pheon makes the biomechanically important, proven EBS technology available to end users with a lower mobility grade.
