Our group has developed an easy-to-use pressure-sensing insole equipped with accelerometers to evaluate a patient’s postural control and balance ability in a non-obtrusive manner. Pressure sensors and MEMS accelerometers are embedded in a shoe insole and display balance information on an easy-to-use graphical user interface. The importance of balance and gait monitoring is applicable to a variety of fields such as: evaluation of neurological disorders, early disease detection in children, new medication monitoring, and elderly fall risk. With this technology patients can use the insole in a home setting to monitor their balancing ability and relay data to their physician wirelessly for proper evaluation eliminating the need for additional in-office visits.
