Menu contents
The prosthetic leg for sports is made of carbon and has the function of bouncing like a spring. We will learn the movement of the prosthetic leg when the athlete is running, and create an animation together using a model. You can also try on the prosthetic legs used by the athletes and experience how the athletes run. Finally, we will learn how technology is evolving the human body through a running demonstration by former Paralympian Jun Haruta and an exchange meeting.
