Meshmixer Series: Episode 7 - Residual Limb Scan to Socket
Переглядів 15 тис.5 років тому
In this video, I demonstrate how to create a patient-specific 3D printable prosthetic socket from a 3D scan of the patients residual limb. Included are details on how to attach adapters to the bottom of the socket to enable the socket to interface with a standard pylon.

Meshmixer Series: Episode 6 - Segmentation and Smoothing of Residual Limb from Structure Scanner
Переглядів 6 тис.5 років тому
This is the sixth episode in my Meshmixer series in which I discuss how to segment out the parts of a 3D scan that you want to work on and smooth out the scan. This has particular applications for low-cost 3D scanning and 3D printing for prosthetic and orthotic applications, especially in developing nations.

      Hi Annette, unfortunately I do not know of any open source files for transtibial residuum. The file I am using is from Nia Technologies, a nonprofit based in Canada that I've done some work with. If you reach out to them, they may provide access to the file for you as well.
