Cybathlon brings together teams from universities, companies, and NGOs, each paired with a person with a disability, to demonstrate the real-world functionality of their assistive technologies. In the prosthetic leg race, pilots wearing transfemoral prostheses complete a series of timed tasks designed to simulate daily life challenges. A total of 51 teams from 20 countries participated in the 2020 edition, which was held simultaneously across multiple locations due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
The Circleg Zero, the prosthetic system used at Cybathlon, represents a significant step in Circleg's development. Fully adjustable to different body sizes, it integrates all core functionalities of the future product while meeting the structural requirements of a clinical prosthetic system. It was the only purely mechanical prosthesis competing in the race.
