Asim ETRI

3D Model

asiMETRI is a project that stems from my leg length discrepancy (also known as limb length inequality). While many people don’t even notice this condition, in my case, it significantly affected me, causing hip and spinal issues. I experienced severe hip inflammation because the sacrum and pelvis tend to tilt or rotate, leading to postural imbalance, joint wear, and lower back or sacroiliac pain. This ultimately forced me to seek medical attention at the age of 31.

My leg length difference is approximately 1 cm. Typically, for discrepancies between 1 and 3 cm, custom insoles are recommended. However, since I did not address the issue in time, I had to wear a brace for six months and start using custom-made insoles. This was possible thanks to several tests conducted by my orthopedist, which were crucial for accurately diagnosing my condition.https://class.textile-academy.org/2025/maricruz-garcia/project/
