The invention relates to a method and device for controlling an artificial orthotic or prosthetic joint with a resistance device to which at least one actuator is associated, via which the bending and/or stretching resistance is changed depending on sensor data. According to the invention, the resistance is adjusted depending on at least one measured temperature signal.一種用於控制一人工矯正體或修復體式關節的方法,該關節具有一阻力裝置,至少有一動作器與該阻力裝置配合,利用該動作器可將彎曲及/或伸直阻力依感測器資料而定作改變,其中,將阻力依至少一測量到的溫度信號而定作改變。(圖3)
