Abstract

Commercial prostheses and orthoses are expensive and have a slow fabrication process that causes patient discomfort. This paper describes the development of an automated 3D scanning system that can reduce the time and production cost of 3D printed forearm prostheses and orthoses. The system is composed of a rotational axis and 3D scanner support, enabling the precise scanning of body parts with a shorter acquisition time and less image processing compared to existing methods. Measurements were performed to analyze the accuracy of the device. The results showed that the system obtains accurate molds of the forearm, with Technical Error of Measurement between 0.12 and 0.25%, threefold smaller measurement error than the maximum accepted value. The proposed method offers a higher number of personalization possibilities at a lower production cost, due to the use of 3D printing techniques, thereby promoting greater social inclusion.
