Dear List,
My name is George Barrera, and I am a UTSA Entrepreneurship student working
with a group of Mechanical Engineers on developing a prosthetic foot for
their senior design project. We were teamed up for UTSA's Center of
Innovation and Technology Entrepreneurship (CITE) Competition and are
looking to move this product forward.
Today we are sending out a survey for Prosthetist that may have insight on
K3 prosthetic feet, their practice, and validation for some of the
improvements we are trying to make.
Our prosthetic foot Thetis is a carbon fiber K3 rated foot that will
allow for increased distribution of stress preventing rupture or
delamination , improved gait, and will integrate new design features to
provide the ability to use one foot for varying levels of activitiy.
Please answer this survey and we will send information once competition is
over about our results. And if there are any prosthetists that are willing
to try the new foot out we would love to get a list of names.
Thanks in advance for your time.
