Louis Flynn recieved his Bachelors of Mechanical Engineering from the University of Southern California in 2002, and his Masters of Mechanical Engineering from Michigan State University in 2009. He is working on the CYBERLEGs project addressing issues related to the mechanical design, instrumentation, and control of an active, transfemoral, lower-limb prosthesis.

Research interest: Active prostheses and exoskeletons, human robotic interaction
