Genium
For over a decade, the Genium Microprocessor Knee from Ottobock has empowered users all over the world to go with the flow: To stay present in the everyday moments that matter most.

For over a decade, the Genium Microprocessor Knee from Ottobock has empowered users all over the world to go with the flow: To stay present in the everyday moments that matter most. To focus on their experiences, rather than their prostheses. And to embrace more opportunities while living active, independent lives.
That’s because the Genium delivers an exceptionally smooth, close-to natural gait pattern. It adapts to everyday activities, such as climbing stairs, stepping backward, and standing relaxed. And it provides the support and safety active users need on ramps, in confined spaces, when changing walking speeds — and beyond.

Intuitive flow with every step

Thanks to its unique OPG (Optimized Physiological Gait) technology, the Genium supports an exceptionally smooth walking pattern. This near-natural gait pattern relieves the user’s locomotor system, providing greater freedom and flexibility for everyday situations and activities.
Life is full of ups, downs and everyday challenges. With the Genium, users can easily take stairs step-over-step and overcome obstacles such as curbs.
Users don't have to worry about encountering occasional water splashes. The Genium is weatherproof (IP67 rated) but it is not waterproof. You should not wear it in the shower or for activities like swimming.
The Genium offers two different stance functions that allow users to rest on their prosthesis. The result is continuous relief for the contralateral side of the body. Bilateral users also benefit from the option of choosing between the stance functions.
Genium users can easily get more support for their favourite activities. MyModes offer a fantastic selection of options for work, leisure and athletics. Together with their O&P professional, users can select from five modes for activation via the Cockpit app.
With the Cockpit app, users can fine tune settings individually, switch between MyModes, check their battery life, set their volume, track their activities, restart their knee joint if needed, and more — all via their iOS or Android smartphone.
Genium users jump into life with both feet
Aaron is ready for anything
There’s nothing more important to Aaron than being able to keep up with his fast-paced family. And for this bilateral amputee, there’s no challenge too great — whether he’s at work, on a weekend getaway with his kids, or out fishing.
Hamed explores new adventures
Hamed’s leg was amputated when he was only six years old — but never let it keep him from leading an active life filled with family, friends, and sports. Always seeking new challenges, Hamed loves how his prosthesis takes him on new journeys every day.
Advanced technology, exceptional control
A groundbreaking microprocessor knee
In 2011, the Genium took the MPK world by storm, delivering truly breakthrough gait performance. And over the last decade, it has continued to evolve, pushing ever further toward the natural model.
Calculating every movement with incomparable precision and accuracy, the Genium responds in real time to support users exactly when and how they need it.
The OPG (Optimized Physiological Gait) technology enables an exceptionally smooth walking pattern — even on slopes or uneven terrain, when changing speeds, or in confined spaces. This also provides targeted relief for the user’s contralateral side, promoting long-term health benefits and helping users live more in the moment.
More control at your fingertips
Integrated Bluetooth® technology empowers users and O&P professionals to configure the Genium via the Cockpit app, available for Android and iOS devices. A few taps are all it takes to activate MyModes for additional support during a wide variety of activities, mute the knee joint while at a theater or other event, or check the battery charge level.
