- attach to the upper part of the leg
Process
Steps
1. Brainstorming the idea about the modern useful
prosthetic leg that are suitable with the southeast asia
climate.
2. Design and drawing the model of each part on the
prosthetic leg (outer part)
3. Design and drawing the inner part of the prosthetic leg
4. Using the Fusion 360 to create the 3D printing design
5. Print out the prosthetic leg model by using the 3D
printing machine
final product!
purpose of the prosthetic
Our prosthetic is designed to help comfort disable people,
so that they can walk smoothly on their own. Our prosthetic
would be in an affordable price, meaning that people with
less income can afford this prosthetic for their benefits.

Materials (3D printing)
Model:
- Plastic
- Knots
- Belts/Elastic bands
Real:
- Ninjaflex
- Filaflex
Analysis
- Change from doing handmade prosthetic model to 3D printed
it.
- Why?: We weren’t able to make the real model as it require molding,
casting, and fabrication, all of which are above our expertise
