Claim One:
1. A method for producing an orthotic device customized to or custom produced for anatomy of an individual to improve biomechanics of the individual, the method comprising: receiving, from a client device, data associated with the individual, the data comprising physical parameters of the individual and image data representative of a foot of the individual, the image data comprising a plurality of images with each image being representative of a view of the foot, wherein at least one of the plurality of images is representative of a medial view of the foot, wherein the data is acquired by the client device without requiring trained medical personnel; computing, by a processing device, a plurality of physical dimensions of the foot of the individual by deriving the plurality of physical dimensions at least partially from the plurality of images; generating, by the processing device, parametric computer-aided design (CAD) model data for the orthotic device based on the physical parameters of the individual, the plurality of physical dimensions of the foot, and a digital three-dimensional (3D) model of the foot to facilitate optimization of mechanical properties of the orthotic device to the individual, wherein the 3D model comprises a plurality of points representative of the individual's anatomy, wherein the 3D model is capable of being inspected, re-used, or re-processed by an algorithm executed by the processing device or updated based on new algorithms and/or updated data associated with the individual, and wherein the parametric CAD model data is descriptive of one or more surface or sub-surface structures; and transmitting the parametric CAD model data to a fabrication device, wherein the fabrication device is to fabricate the orthotic device based on the parametric CAD model data.
