8 Biomimetic Alignment

The aim of alignment is to achieve a balance point while standing and set the hydraulically
damped range of motion. The aim of damping adjustment is to fine tune the ankle-foot roll-over
stiffness characteristics until a comfortable gait is achieved.
Due to the increased range of motion provided by the ankle the user may experience the need
for more voluntary control and initially find the ankle disconcerting during setup. This should
quickly pass upon completion of satisfactory setup.
