  • Patent number: 10528032
    Abstract: A method for generating an orthotic device is disclosed. In one implementation, the method includes generating CAD model data corresponding to an orthotic device to be applied to a body part of a patient. A pattern is mapped to a surface defined by the CAD model data to produce modified CAD model data, the mapped pattern defining a plurality of perforations formed at least partially through the surface. The modified CAD model data is transmitted to a three-dimensional printer. The three-dimensional printer is to produce the orthotic device having the plurality of perforations.

  • Publication number: 20160101571
    Abstract: A method for generating an orthotic device is disclosed. In one implementation, the method includes generating, based on image data representative of a body part of a patient, three-dimensional model data representative of the body part. A surface defined by the three-dimensional model data is identified, the surface corresponding to a contact site at which an orthotic device is to contact the body part. CAD model data is generated that defines a volume corresponding to an extrusion operation performed on the identified surface. The CAD model data is transmitted to a three-dimensional printer to produce the orthotic device based on the CAD model data.
