The aim of this investigation is to design and construct a demonstrative prototype of a low cost foot planter-pressure scanner that can assess health care providers in diagnosing and monitoring patients who are suffering from foot disorders. The prototype will be designed from a matrix of force sensitive sensors that measure the spread of forces on the plantar surface of the foot. Suitable Graphical...
The purpose of this study was to analyze static foot pressure image to obtain the plantar pressure distribution variation between Men and Women using image processing in frequency domain. Methods: We examined 38 feet of 19 healthy subjects (12 Men and 7 Women) aged between twenty to forty five years was recruited for our study. Foot pressure distribution patterns while standing are obtained by using...
For determine the performance of footwear it is nee essary assesses its effects on plantar pressure. Pr evious studies have found that the design change in shape and sole structure can significantly alter shoe plantar pressure in specific regions of the foot, which would prevent illnesses and supply more comfort. A pilot study was carried out in order to evaluate the plan tar pressure distribution...
The purpose of this study was to explore a new parameter set for clubfoot identification. Based on the installation of a customized foot pressure measurement and analysis system, the original data for plantar pressure were obtained from 20 normal foot adults and 30 clubfoot patients. Peak pressures and regional contact area were deduced from the original pressure data, and then were analyzed in ten...
Personalized insole design is a novel approach for better quality of daily life. In this study we developed a low-cost foot pressure measurement system elaborated for primary care and community hospitals, subsequently the feature extraction and pattern recognition were carried out in order to assist the clubfoot diagnosis. The original data were obtained from 20 adults with normal feet and 30 patients...
The need of continuous blood pressure measurement is usable in wide spectrum of applications from physicians practice to home care applications. Many types of blood pressure measurement devices can be bought in electronics shops. All such devices are contact measurement devices which need to be in contact of human body (hand or foot mainly). Secondary they allow only one measurement per several minutes...
