```An Innovative Prosthetic Foot: SoftFoot Pro Mimics Natural Foot Movement```
A motorless, flexible, waterproof prosthetic foot inspired by the anatomy of the human extremity is the new SoftFoot Pro bionic foot prototype, designed by the Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia in Genoa. Its design is unique on an international level and aims to serve both as a flexible technological prosthesis for people with limb-loss and as a solution for the humanoid robots of the future.
SoftFoot Pro is designed to be used on uneven terrain, including slippery grounds, where it is typically more challenging for prosthetic users, and for robots, to maintain balance.
