Genium X3

Choose powerful versatility

The sensor technology in our Genium leg prostheses makes intuitive and natural motion sequences possible, even when you’re walking backwards or climbing stairs, or when switching between different walking speeds and stride lengths. Enhanced safety and quality of life along with relief for the contralateral side: These are just some of the aspects that can benefit users considerably. And this has been scientifically proven.

The sensor technology in our Genium leg prostheses makes intuitive and natural motion sequences possible, even when you’re walking backwards or climbing stairs, or when switching between different walking speeds and stride lengths. Enhanced safety and quality of life along with relief for the contralateral side: These are just some of the aspects that can benefit users considerably. And this has been scientifically proven.

Building on the unique functionality of the Genium leg prosthesis, the Genium X3 is particularly robust and resilient. Physically demanding occupations, an active family life, swimming and sports activities, seaside holidays and situations where you encounter water, dust, sand, dirt or grime – these are the ideal conditions for the Genium X3.

The Genium X3 has now been developed even further on this basis for smoother, more intuitive walking, improved safety and better support in everyday situations. Another plus for you: The new prosthesis is incredibly simple to configure using the Cockpit app 2.0 on your iPhone or Android smartphone.

The Genium X3 opens up previously unthinkable possibilities for the user and goes a step beyond the Genium. Its robustness also makes it suitable for heavy-duty use at work and at home. Even working in damp conditions is no problem – an important factor for many prosthesis wearers who need to integrate back into their work environment.

High-speed performance

Whether you’re running to catch the bus or keeping up with your kids, the walk-to-run function lets you change speeds spontaneously for short sprints. An additional running mode for longer distances was developed especially for sports activities with the Genium X3.

Fully waterproof 

The Genium X3 lets you shower, swim, or work in damp conditions without thinking twice. Special materials, coatings, and components protect the electronics. The joint is waterproof (even when exposed to strong jets of water) and corrosion-resistant.

Functionality

Custom configurations with MyModes

Engineered for a smooth gait pattern

Movement is calculated with incomparable accuracy and initiated in real time by the Genium X3, whether on uneven terrain and slopes, when changing speeds, or in confined spaces. Studies prove that providing targeted relief for the contralateral side also has long-term health benefits. Particularly robust materials allow even more freedom of movement, including in wet and harsh environments. Patients can benefit from focusing their attention on the important things in life, rather than having to think about every step.

More control at your fingertips

It’s all in your hands. Thanks to integrated Bluetooth, the Genium X3 can be configured using an app. This makes it very easy to select additional movement patterns, which are stored by your technician as MyModes. Switch the joint to mute mode when you're at the movies or the theater. You can also read the battery charge level with the Cockpit app. The Genium X3 can be configured with the Cockpit app for Android was well as Apple (iOS) devices.
