Abstract：The intelligent prosthetic knee, as the most important component in the lower limb prosthesis system, is a sophisticated system with the high integration of man-machine-environment. The solution of its key programs is a crucial step towards natural and compliant gait of the amputee wearing a prosthetic knee in practical applications. In this article, we reviewed the research progress of the intelligent prosthetic knee from the perspectives of bionic design, intelligent perception, and intelligent control. Bionic design focuses on how to make the prosthetic knee fit the driving / damping compensation mechanism of human joint through bionic structure and actuator design. Intelligent perception focuses on how to establish a man-machine-environment interaction channel to realize the hybrid decision-making in locomotion intention recognition and man-machine collaborative tasks. Intelligent control focuses on how to adjust the actuating strategy of the prosthetic knee in a dynamic environment to improving the approximation with normal gait characteristics. Finally, we discussed future directions and challenges in the research of the intelligent prosthetic knee, including the hybrid active-passive compensatory actuating, volitional control and man-machine-environment double closed-loop interaction.
