Traditional transfemoral lower-limb prostheses often overlook the intuitive neuronal connections between the brain and prosthetic actuators. This study bridges this gap by integrating a functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) into real-time lower-limb prosthesis control with preliminary clinic...
