Founded in 2013 by Penn State researchers, State College’s Xmorphe develops prosthetic systems for people with limb loss, including its flagship passive prosthetic ankle. Formerly known as Impulse Technology, the company has focused on prosthetics since 2017 and applies research in compliant mechanical systems to create practical mobility and rehabilitation technologies. Its newer GoraliPaa SFT prosthetic foot combines vertical loading, active dorsiflexion, and torsion without hydraulics.

• HumotechFounded in 2015 as a Carnegie Mellon University spin-off, Pittsburgh-based Humotech develops wearable robotics and mobility technology for prosthetic research, clinical evaluation, and human-movement innovation. Its Caplex® platform lets researchers and clinicians emulate different mechanical behaviors with modular systems, while the company’s FDA-registered Clinical Caplex® System supports data-driven prosthetic-foot trials for people with limb loss. Founder Josh Caputo’s original question—whether robotics could create a better prosthetic foot—still shapes Humotech’s work across the laboratory and clinic.541715PITTSBURGH, PA
• Shree Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS)Founded in Jaipur in 1975 after civil servant D. R. Mehta’s hospital-bed resolve to help amputees, Shree Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS) develops and provides Jaipur Foot prostheses and other mobility aids free of charge. As the parent body of Jaipur Foot, BMVSS has advanced the technology since its 1968 development and now supports more than 2.5 million beneficiaries through its Indian centres and international fitment camps. Its Stanford-Jaipur Knee was named by TIME among the world’s 50 best inventions of 2009, while its patient-centred model typically fits limbs within one or two days.MANHASSET, NY
• Perry ProstheticsAfter founder Chris Perry lost his right leg in a motorcycle accident, he built Perry Prosthetics around helping others navigate limb loss; today the company provides custom upper- and lower-limb prosthetic care. For over 25 years, its prosthetists have combined patient education and close coordination with healthcare teams with an on-site fabrication laboratory, while its CARE® program and Amputee Empower Hour extend support beyond fitting and delivery.PERRYSBURG, OH
• Infinite Biomedical Technologies, LLCFounded in 1997 by Professor Nitish Thakor and Dr. Ananth Natarajan, Infinite Biomedical Technologies grew out of the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine and remains rooted in Baltimore’s research community. Its engineers, clinicians, and researchers turn laboratory work into practical prosthetic solutions for people with upper-limb loss and difference, including its Glide control system. The company reports serving more than 5,000 patients across 21 countries while publishing research and developing patented medical technologies.BALTIMORE, MD
