Impulse Technology LLC

Impulse Technology develops innovative prosthetics and mechanical systems to restore amputee mobility and improve quality of life. Founded in 2013 by Penn State researchers, the company specializes in advanced prosthetic ankle systems that adapt to gait changes and terrain variations. Their flagship product, the GoraliPaa SFT, is a lightweight prosthetic foot combining vertical loading pylons with active dorsiflexion and torsion capabilities, eliminating the need for hydraulics. The technology delivers enhanced stability and natural gait patterns across varied terrain while reducing misalignment effects. Impulse Technology is supported by the Invent Penn State incubator and Ben Franklin Technology Partners, with ongoing clinical testing and patent-pending innovations funded by US Department of Defense awards.
