Prosthetic Socket Fit Sensor

An apparatus for achieving a best possible prosthetic fit in a prosthesis system for an amputee includes a sensor array embedded in a gel like substance slipped over a residual limb in a socket configuration with respect to a prosthesis system. Such an apparatus can also include data collection and transmission mechanism such as a microcontroller that communicates with the sensor array and which data from the sensor array to a computing device for processing and interpretation of the data in order to statically and dynamically assess a quality of fit of the prosthesis system for the amputee.
