---- PROTOTYPE --------- PURPOSE: To design a prototype of a prosthesis for individuals with lower limb amputation for use at the beach and for swimming. Murr-ma is a specialized prosthesis that enables individuals with lower limb amputation to enjoy beach activities and swimming. Inspired by the dorsal fin of the sailfish, this prosthesis has fins attached to its carbon fiber center post to channel water flowing alongside the post and out at the sides, providing the wearer with the necessary thrust to move through the water. The split toe design also makes it possible to transition easily from sand to surf. TITLE: Murr-ma - Amphibious Lower Leg Prosthetic. WEBSITE: Universal Design Style.
