[01]Important: this is not a medical service
4V3D is not a healthcare provider and employs no clinicians. Nothing here involves diagnosis, treatment, or the prescribing of medical devices.
Foot scanning is a comfort and fit service: the shape of the foot is measured and a custom insole is made from it, in exactly the sense that a suit is tailored or an earpiece is moulded. It is comfort, not treatment.
If you have a medical concern (pain, deformity, anything diabetes-related, or a post-injury condition), see a GP, an orthopaedic specialist or a licensed orthotics clinic. A medically indicated orthosis has to be prescribed and made by a qualified professional. I am not that professional and I won't pretend to be.
[02]What you can order
- A 3D scan of both feet
- A custom comfort insole made from the scan
- Insoles for sports, work or cycling shoes
- The scan handed over as a file to your own maker or partner
- Scanning as a service for shoe shops and sports retail
- A rescan when the footwear or the use changes
[03]Who it suits
On your feet all day
When the working day happens standing up and by evening the sole feels like concrete.
Sport and hobby
A runner, cyclist or hiker who wants more comfort out of a shoe that otherwise fits.
Awkward footwear
When the shop insole doesn't sit right but the shoe itself is fine.
Shoe shops
Fit assessment from a scan, without buying a scanner.
[04]How it works
Scanning takes a few minutes. The iQube S is built specifically for feet: geometry is captured in seconds, in a form that goes straight into designing an insole. No plaster, no foam, no casting compound, and your feet stay clean.
The scan is kept. If you want a second pair a year later, or one for different shoes, you don't have to come back.
[05]For workshops and shops
If you already make insoles (an orthopaedic workshop, a shoe shop, a sports shop), the scanning doesn't have to happen in your building. Send the customer to me: I scan the foot and you get back a clean 3D file to do your own work on.
A scanned foot stays as a file: a year later the second pair doesn't need the customer to come back in. If the volume is more than a couple of pairs a month, the per-pair price comes down. Write and we'll talk numbers.
[06]Body and face
A neighbouring service: the Einscan H2's infrared mode is made for faces and bodies. Suitable for a 3D portrait, a figure, or measuring for custom-fitted equipment. That is a comfort and creative service too, not medicine.
