The world is advancing in fields of science and medicine, the bio-medical engineering field is on a rise as it is the largest growing industries in our technology based society. A substantial problem faced by amputees is the ability to achieve things they were able to accomplish, with regular legs. We believe this should not be the case. We believe that amputees prosthetics should be able to enhance the user, bringing them to new heights. Even greater than their previous counterpart. An innovation of a prosthetic leg beginning at the knee. It will be using hydraulics/pneumatic, and beyond this it will be combined with a cheetah blade like design, in order to give the user an enhanced limb rather than a basic prosthetic. This will allow the user for better acquainted running, athletics, and will enhance their jumping capabilities, as it is difficult to jump with regular prosthetics. The proposed prosthetic legs are very strong and allow for a very powerful springing motion, helping the user leap high into the air. It will also allow for better sprinting/ running, much better than cheetah blades as it would allow the user to gain more speed as they will pounce into action, due to the included pneumatics/hydraulics. It gives the user a better propulsion than the cheetah blades, allowing for faster and more powerful movement
