Insole design from 3D foot scanner

Post by mea08kw »

Hi FreeCAD Forum:

I have downloaded a foot model in stl format and imported it into FreeCAD.

First of all, I converted it from stl into solid.

I'm wondering how I could get a simple insole contour according to the foot scan.

What I can do now is just Boolean operation with cut, see attached image.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards,

Hi Guys

I attached a journal or conference paper regarding to insole design via Rhinoros with a customized plug-in.

Sections 2.2.1 to 2.2.6 introduce the entire insole design process step by step.

From my understanding, the creation of section curves and insole surface are the most important keys to achieve what I want.

I'm not sure how to create section curves from a solid and create a surface from the lower part of section curves.

I appreciate any solutions coming up.

Many thanks.
