ABOUT CLIENT
Our Client IDEO ORTOPEDIAS is an orthopedic group, which has been developing its activity in the healthcare services sector, particularly in ortho-prosthetic products and scanners for over 40 years.

THE PROJECT
IDEO has its own scanner, which offers a 3D scanned model, but there was no way they could measure these scans. ProtoTech thus implemented partial body measurement of hands and legs in their very own 3D Measurement software which catered to prosthesis development. Earlier ProtoTech’s measurement software did not support the partial body but looking at the client’s requirements they supported these highly accurate measurements, which no other software in the market is supporting.
THE CHALLENGE
- Medical science and research centers use 3D scanners to produce high accuracy digital models of the human body and its individual parts.
- Measuring these 3D realistic models was a challenge, especially the partial measurement of hands and legs
- Manual measurement was labor-intensive, erroneous. After all, humans are bound to make mistakes
- The precise and realistic measure, which is of the utmost importance in the field of health, has been a major hurdle to overcome because they had to reproduce exactly the functionality of the missing limb.
THE SOLUTION
- We designed the 3D Measure Up software so that it could automatically detect and measure landmark points
- Accurate, fast, and exact geometrical measurements were provided.
- The solution was designed in such a way that it worked for all levels of amputations right from cosmetics to the most complex
- The designed solution worked on any device – laptops, tablets, smartphones, websites.
THE BENEFITS
- 3D Measure Up easily recognized body geometry and has therefore been very easy to use.
- Automatic calculations were rendered
- Reasonably priced compared to other products on the market.
- The software is compatible with all 3D scanners, reducing dependence, and thus making the manufacturing process very innovative.
- Perfect fit prosthetics were designed in a matter of seconds thereby establishing medical tasks to a completely new level.
ProtoTech provided us A-class service for their product 3D Measure Up. It is a very user-friendly product for our prosthetist (provides automatic calculations). It is better cost wise too, as compared to other products being sold in the market!
