What is the function of the plantar pressure distribution system in measuring plantar pressure?

The plantar pressure distribution system mainly adopts array-type high-sensitivity pressure sensors built in the pressure plate to real-timely sense the pressure distribution data of human body under the states of static standing, walking and other postures.

What are the functions of measuring plantar pressure?

1. Applied in foot medical treatment.

In hospitals and rehabilitation institutions, the introduction of the plantar pressure distribution system can help doctors and rehabilitation therapists evaluate foot health conditions with reasonable data, such as evaluating flat feet, high arches, plantar fasciitis, diabetic feet and other conditions.

In addition, it can also be applied to pre-operative and post-operative evaluation, enabling doctors and rehabilitation therapists to formulate more reasonable plans and improve treatment efficiency.



2. Applied in the production of orthotic insoles and orthopedic shoes.

Foot abnormalities such as flat feet and high arches often need auxiliary correction through orthotic insoles and orthopedic shoes, and such correction solutions are also widely recognized in the market at present.

The production of orthotic insoles generally requires the cooperation of several devices, namely: foot 3D laser scanner, plantar pressure distribution system, 3D printer / insole engraving machine.

The foot 3D laser scanner is mainly used to acquire three-dimensional data to facilitate the modeling of insoles.

The plantar pressure distribution system is mainly used to obtain plantar pressure distribution data. Such data facilitates the design of more reasonable plantar pressure distribution and supporting force to achieve a better correction effect.

The 3D printer / insole engraving machine is used to manufacture insoles after the design is completed.

In addition, procedures such as veneering and polishing are also required.

3. Applied in campus foot screening.

The foot health of adolescents and children is extremely important. If foot problems are found at this stage and intervened in a timely manner, a relatively ideal effect can be achieved or even completely cured with lower costs.

If foot problems are discovered in adulthood when the bone structure is finalized, huge expenses will be required for correction, and thorough radical cure will be difficult.

The application of the plantar pressure distribution system in campus screening can timely detect potential foot problems of adolescents and children, and conduct timely intervention to better protect the healthy growth of children.

4. Applied in fall prevention for the elderly.

By using the plantar pressure distribution system to measure plantar pressure distribution data and center of gravity movement trajectory, the balance ability of the elderly can be judged.

Doctors or rehabilitation therapists evaluate the balance ability of the elderly based on the data, provide corresponding solutions and carry out training intervention to improve the fall prevention ability of the elderly.

5. Applied in improving athletic performance and preventing sports injuries.

In various sports, measurement via the plantar pressure distribution system can acquire the force application points of athletes during a certain sport, so as to judge whether athletes have incorrect force application methods. Specific data are then used to guide athletes in movement correction, thereby improving athletic performance and reducing the injury rate of athletes
