Maximise your Mobility: Benefits of Ottobock MPKs.
Discover the freedom to move and live with Ottobock‘s advanced microprocessor knees (MPKs). Explore how our innovative technology can enhance your mobility and comfort, empowering you to live life to the fullest.
MPK vs. Non-MPK.
Mechanical knees use mechanical locks, friction, or fluids, often relying on body weight for stance control.

Microprocessor knees use sensors and software to adjust the fluid-based resistance to your gait, allowing easier walking at different speeds, safer descent of ramps and stairs and safe standing.
Stance, Swing and Everything In Between.
All prosthetic knees are designed to emulate two phases of your natural walking pattern. The Ottobock MPKs recreate the whole gait from stance to swing phase in a unique technology that sets Kenevo, C-Leg and Genium X4 apart from any other MPKs on the market.
