Haptiforme’s Layered Suture Pad
A Quebec project developing physical medical simulators for practicing clinical gestures, including a multilayer suture pad with simulated vessels and artificial blood.
Field notes
The project develops physical simulators around a defined gesture, anatomical structure, clinical scenario, or teaching objective. Its featured suture pad uses multiple tissue-like layers and may include simulated vessels and artificial blood; the site says roughly a dozen functional prototypes have been made. Custom work is described as a five-step process covering needs assessment, scenario definition, 3D-assisted design, prototype fabrication, and adjustments based on client feedback.
