- Worth noticing
- Qadam says one case is meant to support 15–20 fittings before standardized-part resupply, not a verified deployment result.
Field notes
The proposed workflow uses a phone or tablet as an offline fitting brain: scans and reusable sensors inform settings that a technician dials into reconfigurable formers by hand. A low-temperature plastic check socket is described for fit checks before a definitive socket; the site says a certified prosthetist would set accuracy targets and red-flag criteria remotely. The kit’s stated capacity is 15–20 fittings before standardized-part resupply.
