Abstract
The invention relates to a method for controlling an orthotic or prosthetic joint of a lower extremity with a resistance device to which at least one actuator is associated, via which the bending and/or stretching resistance is changed depending on sensor data. During the use of the joint, status information is provided via the sensors. The sensor data are determined by at least one device for detecting at least two moments or a moment and a force. The sensor data of at least two determined values are linked by means of a mathematical operation and at least one auxiliary variable is thus calculated, on which the control of the bending and/or stretching resistance is based.
