"Smart 3D works" software and e-commerce system for Ortho Baltic
Challenge
Ortho Baltic faced challenges in managing time and other company resources when conventional footwear design processes required too much redundant work and effort. Also, the company had the objective to speed up the footwear order placement processes by implementing an e-commerce system accessible to customers in both B2B and B2C sectors.

Solution
To ensure faster and more efficient design processes for customized footwear, the 3D Computer-Aided Design Software (CAD) called "Smart 3D Works" was developed and implemented. 3D CAD technology provides the ability to create, test, and document three-dimensional objects in digital space. The system has enabled an orthopedic surgeon and a clinical engineer to collaborate digitally to design customized foot products. In addition, the modeling of the products was designed so that the products could be printed on a 3D printer.
One of the main features of the system is the automated detection of anatomical points, which helps to accurately identify the anatomical structure of the patient's foot. Machine learning is used to achieve this goal, which ensures the efficiency of the system by learning from the provided data and improving algorithms that can perform the functions required for efficient and fast product design.
All the products developed and the associated data are automatically hosted in a clinical database, which ensures easy accessibility of data at any time, reduces redundancy, and optimizes the use of company resources.
In addition, the system includes an order management system that enables orthopedic surgeons and clinical engineers to communicate effectively, place orders, and monitor the order process.
The system effectively facilitates and speeds up the production process of orthopedic footwear, ensuring high quality and customization. The use of company resources is optimized through the efficient use of modern technologies and the automation of resource-intensive work processes.
