Info

The footswitches are to be worn as insoles in the Subject’s shoes or taped to the bottom of their bare feet. The footswitches will indicate the total time each foot is and is not bearing weight. The footswitches have contact areas in the Heel, Fifth Metatarsal, First Metatarsal, and Great Toe areas, to indicate when these areas of the foot are bearing weight (Figure 3). Figure 3: Footswitch Contact Areas The force sensitive resistor (FSR) insoles (Figure 4) were constructed using force sensitive resistor sensors from Tekscan, SOF® Comfort Insoles, black Gorilla tape, and ACE Red 1/16” Sheet Rubber.

Figure 4: FSR Insole The FSR’s are to be worn as insoles in the Subject’s shoes or taped to the bottom of their bare feet. The FSR’s will indicate the weight distribution on the toe and heel during the stance phase of the gait cycle. The FSR’s have contact areas in the Heel and Great Toe areas, to indicate the applied pressure on these areas (Figure 5).
