College Park Industries[1] is a prosthetics manufacturer headquartered inWarren, Michigan. The company was founded in 1988 after a local machinist set out to create the world's most anatomically correctprosthetic foot.[2]
College Park's first product was theTrustep® foot,[3] which mimics the anatomical movement of a foot by replicating the bones and tendons through composites, bumpers and bushings. Since the release of the Trustep®, College Park has gone on to design and develop many other innovative prosthetic feet that utilize their proprietary Intelliweave™[4] composites. These include theTruper®, the first multi-axialpediatric foot; theSoleus®,[5] which was the first to incorporate Integrated Spring Technology (iST™);[6] the heel-height adjustableAccent® foot; and theOdyssey® K2 &Odyssey® K3 feet which have a patented curved hydraulic ankle. College Park also manufacturers other prosthetic products, including endoskeleton components, liners, and sleeves. The company isISO 13485 certified and sells its products worldwide. In 2015, College Park acquired Liberating Technologies, Inc.,[7] an upper-limb prosthetics company.
