Robohand just showed preview photograph of the RoboLeg prototype. It looks like 3d printed parts like joints with metal pipes and gas cylinders support structure. Robohand revolutionized the prosthetic field with their cheep 3d printable DIY hand prosthesis, now they will hopefully do the same for leg prosthetic field.
Robohand project also spun out many independent projects working in war affected developing countries to provide cheap help for disabled victims like Project Daniel.
