The medical industry—particularly orthotic and prosthetic services—requires the ability to capture the body’s complex and organic shapes with non-contact devices to design comfortable orthoses or prostheses for patients.
3D scanning prevents the use of plaster for molding, a technique that may turn out quite traumatizing, especially for young children. Safe, contact-free, and accurate 3D scanners enable physicians and clinicians to create perfect physical shapes easily, from capturing the body part to bringing the shape into the software for modification and production.
Since physicians and clinicians are usually not 3D scanning experts, they also need simple 3D scanners and user-friendly software that they can master quickly without extensive training. In addition, the 3D scanner should be ready to use in less than five minutes in any environment, making the process seamless and worry-free for patients.
