Abstract:

For the treatment of combustion sore the patient receives compression therapy on the reconstructed skin to reduce the intensity of scars. In the public funded BMBF-research project “Smart Scar Care”, the project consortium targets industrial pro-duced burn garments regarding fitting, compression, pore structure, and micro air-conditioning, while keeping the individuality of the treatment. The required make-to-order process consists of several sub processes: (1) Capturing individual body measurements with 3D-scanning technologies, (2) Product configuration, (3) Trans-fer of product data, (4) Interpreting geometry and configuration to calculate 3D-flat knitting model, (5) 3D-simulation to review compression results and product quality, and (6) fully automated production of individual burn garment. The talk under con-sideration will cover the first two aspects of this workflow.
For clinical environments, especially within emergency room situations, a stationary full-body scanner is not feasible. On the other hand, using a mobile, handheld scan-ning device brings its own challenges. We will address the feasibility of such a sys-tem in the targeted environment and show example cases. Especially for the body parts targeted in this project a motion-restricting pose is possible, both to reduce reproduction dispersal and keep a contact- and, therefore, painless relationship to the patient.
Afterwards, for configuring the individual burn garment the scanning results are used additionally. This implies a second layer of individualization, adding individual con-figuration to individual body shape. We will investigate the necessary set of interac-tion tools and illustrate their use. The resulting product configuration is then embed-ded into the previously mentioned make-to-order process, which will be briefly ad-dressed, here.
