2025-09-25

A foot scanner mainly measures the morphological data and three-dimensional data of the foot.

Its functions are commonly in the following aspects:

1. Application in the production of orthotic insoles.
After obtaining three-dimensional data with a foot 3D scanner, the data is imported into insole design software for personalized design.
After the design is completed, the data is exported and then imported into a 3D printer or an insole engraving machine for production.

2. Application in medical and rehabilitation institutions.
For example, it can be used to assess flat feet, high arches, as well as foot inversion and eversion.
In hospitals and rehabilitation institutions, through measurement with a foot scanner, foot problems can be assessed accurately and quickly.

In shoe retail stores, placing a foot 3D scanner allows customers to collect their own foot data at any time and evaluate their own foot health.
It can also intelligently select shoe sizes.
Merchants can also input the shoes and socks styles available in the store into the device. After scanning their feet, customers can be recommended suitable styles.
This can save customers’ time in selecting shoes and insoles, help them quickly find styles that fit their foot shape, and improve the shopping experience.
The foot 3D scanner also provides customers with a high-tech experience, which can promote the sales conversion rate.
It can also provide personalized services such as orthotic insoles and corrective shoes for customers with foot problems, increasing revenue channels.
