DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF PROSTHETIC LIMB THROUGH CAD

Gaurav Kakran*

ABSTRACT

Research Background The research is concentrated on my work done on the project “Design and Development of Prosthetic Limb through CAD” in year 2017-2019 in Mobility India at Bangalore. Mobility India promotes and develops innovative and cost effective assistive products and bring together the network of partners to help identify the best innovative solutions to help scale “ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY”. Development of Prosthetics and Orthotics is one major dimension to scale “ASSISTIVE TECHNOLOGY”. I have taken this dimension into consideration and thought to develop the Transtibial (Below the Knee, BK) Prosthetics using the present technologies so that artificial limbs are stronger and lighter. Need for doing the Research I wish to work on the major Research Finding of my Project done in Transtibial Prosthetics (Below the Knee Prosthetics).On this basis I wish to work on a wider angle of Prosthetics technology i.e. “A BIONIC LIMB” in order to optimize the energy necessary to operate the limb.
