Abstract: Custom manufactured headwear for a subject's head is provided. The headwear comprises an inner layer shaped to contact the head of the subject at predetermined areas. The inner layer is deposited by an additive manufacturing device. The headwear further comprises an outer layer deposited by the additive manufacturing device. The inner layer and the outer layer are each formed by the additive manufacture device utilizing a device data file derived from a subject data file. The subject data file is representative of the shape of the head and the device data file determining the shape of the headwear.

Abstract: A custom cranial remodeling orthosis device to modify the shape of a deformed head of a subject is described. The orthosis device has an inner layer carrying an inner surface shaped to provide modification of the head shape. The inner surface of the device has an inner surface peripheral edge. The orthosis device has an outer layer carrying an outer surface. The outer surface has an outer surface peripheral edge. At least one of the inner surface peripheral edge and the outer surface peripheral edge is determined from one or more of curvatures, features, and anthropometric reference points on the shape of the deformed head. Thed inner surface peripheral edge and the outer surface peripheral edge are offset from each other.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a custom cranial remodeling device for correction of cranial deformities in a subject is described. The method comprises generating a three-dimensional head data file for the subject; identifying predetermined reference points on the head; automatically selective utilizing the predetermined reference points to calculate contour lines on the head; automatically generating a modified head shape data file; juxtaposing the modified head shape with the head represented by the three-dimensional head data file having the contour lines thereon; utilizing the modified head shape data file to generate a shape for a desired custom cranial remodeling device, the shape having an interior surface to contact the head and an outer surface; projecting lines outward from the contour lines to the outer surface; and utilizing the projected lines to establish cranial remodeling device contour lines for the custom cranial remodeling device.

Abstract: A method for fabricating a custom cranial remodeling device for correction of cranial deformities in a subject is described. The method comprises generating a three-dimensional head data file for the subject. Predetermined reference points are identified on the head. The predetermined reference points are utilized to calculate contour lines on the head. A modified head shape data file is generated and juxtaposed with the head represented by the three-dimensional head data file having the contour lines thereon. The modified head shape data file is used to generate a shape for a desired custom cranial remodeling device, the shape having an interior surface to contact the head and an outer surface The contour lines establish peripheral edges for the custom cranial remodeling device.

Abstract: A method for concurrent additive manufacture of a plurality of custom cranial remodeling orthosis devices for a corresponding plurality of subjects is provided. Each cranial remodeling orthosis device is customized for a different subject and each cranial remodeling device orthosis is represented by a corresponding device data file. The method comprises partitioning each corresponding device data file into a plurality of device portion data files. Each device portion data file corresponds to a device portion of a corresponding one cranial remodeling orthosis device. The method further comprises processing each of the plurality of device portion data files into a nested data array corresponding to a nested array of device portions of all of the plurality of cranial remodeling orthosis devices. The nested data array is concurrently manufactured in a production or build chamber of additive manufacture apparatus.
