Abstract
A system and method are provided herein for modeling of force vectors for serial casts to correct orthopedic deformities includes a camera configured to capture a three-dimensional image of the deformity, a computing device programmed to generate a three-dimensional model of the deformity based on the image of the deformity, determine the boundary conditions for the deformity based on the three-dimensional image of the deformity, and generate force vectors for a series of casts to correct the deformity. In exemplary embodiments, the system can print a series of casts to correct the deformity.
