About
Taha Khamis is a researcher in biomechatronics and assistive robotics, with a focus on developing advanced prosthetic and orthotic devices for individuals with lower-limb impairments. His work centers on the design, optimization, and control of robotic knee prostheses, particularly for transfemoral amputees, who often face up to 60% higher metabolic costs during ambulation. Khamis’s most-cited paper, "Robotic Knee Prosthesis with Cycloidal Gear and Four-Bar Mechanism Optimized Using Particle Swarm Algorithm" (2022, 6 citations), introduces a novel powered prosthesis that replaces conventional harmonic reducers with a cycloidal gear and four-bar linkage system. This design, optimized via particle swarm optimization, enhances torque output and mechanical efficiency while reducing weight and complexity. The work addresses a critical gap in high-torque, energy-efficient prosthetic solutions, offering a promising alternative to existing technologies. Khamis’s contributions are significant for improving mobility and quality of life for amputees, and his research continues to push the boundaries of wearable robotics and human-machine integration.
