Innovation is healthy
The 3D Labs at California State University is at the forefront of innovative orthopedic cast technology, aiming to revolutionize the traditional casting process for broken arms through 3D printing. The challenge involves creating a functional 3D model of their testing model for a 3D orthopedic cast, demonstrating its superiority over conventional methods. The goal is to understand the research, translate it into a tangible prototype, and showcase its potential to the medical community.
To address the ambitious endeavor of advancing orthopedic cast technology, our solution involved a comprehensive approach that bridged the gap between research and practical application. We embarked on a journey to fully comprehend the intricacies of the testing model, acquainting ourselves with the scientific principles and nuances of resin printing. This foundation allowed us to execute an effective translation of the concept into a tangible, functional prototype.
Our collaboration with faculty members in the 3D Labs enabled us to work hand in hand, merging their research insights with our technical expertise. This collaborative approach ensured that the 3D model accurately represented the intended functionality, while also being visually compelling.
Through rigorous modeling and development, we brought their vision to life in the form of a demo product. This prototype demonstrated the potential of the 3D orthopedic cast to rival traditional methods. The intricate details of the model showcased the precision achievable through 3D printing, providing a tangible testament to the innovation driving the project. The result was a compelling demonstration that illustrated the viability of the technology, empowering the 3D Labs to communicate their research's potential impact to the broader medical community effectively.
