How the BiOM Ankle Works
The BiOM Ankle replaces the function of the individual’s lost muscle and tendon anatomy and provides more energy than it stores. Our unique technology provides a net-positive power assist, emulating the missing calf muscles and energizing the amputee’s forward progression during each walking stride.
With each step, the BiOM Ankle delivers powered propulsion to lift and drive the patient forward, smoothly transitioning weight to the active limb.
Assured Performance, Reliability and Support
The BiOM Ankle uses tablet-based software to customize tuning and gait normalization for each patient.
This provides documentation of K3 mobility.
The BiOM Ankle has a 3 year warranty.
More than 1,000 people have experienced the power of BiOM Personal Bionics.

The BiOM Ankle is intended to replace a missing foot and ankle. The BiOM Ankle is to be used exclusively for fittings of lower extremity amputations as prescribed by a healthcare professional.
The BiOM Ankle does not work for everyone and individual results may vary. The most common complications are complete battery discharge which may reduce walking distance and speed, improper tuning or improper walking up and down stairs which increases the risk of falls.
