Impact of autologous breast reconstruction on bra fit. YT Liu, NH Khan, MC Bordes, et al.

Preoperative baseline breast measurements, age, and BMI can impact bra designs for breast cancer survivors who undergo autologous reconstruction due to size, shape, and symmetry changes. Bra needs of people who undergo autologous reconstruction differ from those who undergo implant-based reconstruction.

Deformation of palmar hand measurements in a power grip by wrist ulnar/radial deviation. H Jung, W Lee, S Moon, H You.

The hand at a straight neutral posture was scanned using the 3dMDhand system. Next, the hand was scanned while in a power grip at each of three wrist postures (20° of radial deviation, neutral, and 30° of ulnar deviation), along with the corresponding palmar hand cast.

Next-Generation Custom-Fit Reusable Respiratory Protective Device with Continuous Fit Monitoring. S Park, Y Tian, M Bergman, Dr. Ziqing Zhuang, J Pollard, S Jayaraman.

As the first step in customizing the prototype, a set of 21 facial anthropometric landmarks and 15 dimensions was selected for the design. The faces of three members of the research team were scanned using a 3dMD digital scanning system. From these scans, algorithms were developed to create digital representations of the contours of the RPD frame.

NIOSH’s “Respirator Fit Evaluation” Challenge… A Phase 1 Winner. S Jayaraman, S Park.

Their innovation device is customized to the individual’s facial profile, continuously monitors the fit unobtrusively, and when there is a change in the fit during use, which could lead to a faceseal leakage, alerts the user through an App on the smartphone thereby ensuring the user’s safety.

The Design of a Robotic Arm to Measure Elbow Torque and Contact Pressures in an EVA Suit Arm. LJ Simms, DC Hall, BJ Dunbar, and RO Ambrose.

To evaluate the effect of individual arm anthropometrics on “performance”, a 3dMD photogrammetric scanner was used to capture a digital scan of a subject’s arm from the acromioclavicular joint to the tip of the distal phalanx of the third digit.
