China Focus. Tech for good. Innovation empowers disabled in China
At a rehabilitation room in Qingdao, east China's Shandong Province, 59-year-old Sun Renchun took steady steps forward with a bionic leg, an accomplishment he previously believed was impossible.
Several other leg amputees were doing the same, their faces lighting up with each deliberate stride. "I thought I would never stand up again. But after wearing the bionic leg for just over half a month, I can walk quite steadily," Sun said.
The advanced bionic legs, developed by the brain-machine interface company BrainCo, rely on intelligent algorithms to adjust the knee joint in real-time, offering walking support that aligns more closely with human physiology.
