Design of Assisted Footwear for Terminal Transverse Lower Limb Deficiency Using Anthropometric Calculations and Forward Engineering Methods: A Study Case

Implementing a foot prosthesis for transverse hemimelia cases is quite different from amputation cases. Based on case studies, users have deformed feet since birth so they don’t know how to walk using shoes. To train the ability to walk requires the assistance of an adult in walking using a prosthetics leg. The purpose of the research is design of assisted footwear for terminal transverse lower limb deficiency using Anthropometrics and forward engineering methods. The results of product design have applied anthropometry with combine 50th percentile. Therefore, it is necessary to assembly adult Prosthetic Leg and child Prosthetic Leg. The design of the prosthetics leg was designed to suit the case. By using this product, the user will be able to run smoothly.
