Orthotyped

Inspiration

After working on a yearlong independent research project developing a novel 3D printer plastic for bone reconstructive implants, we wanted to create an interface that ensures the usability and quick creation of implants for traumatic bone injuries.

What problem our project solves

The need for inexpensive and patient-specific bone reconstructive implants that can be manufactured in-hospital for quick turnaround in traumatic injuries.

How our project solves the problem

With Orthotyped, bone models can be printed and implanted in just weeks, or even days. Using a easily operatible software system that allows for the input of a hospital’s database, and a single-use patient code that allows for maximum security, MRI scans can be input into a software that generates a 3D model of the implant, which can then generate a code that, sent to a 3D printer, can be printed at the hospital at that very moment.

What technologies our project used

We obtained an external HTML template which we then overwrote with our own HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, designed the hospital/patient portal using figma(which we then coded into new html files), and designed our logo with Procreate.

Challenges we ran into

Because it is not possible for us to actually link our software to a hospital database, we have been unable to account for other variables and actually test the gateway in real statistics.
