Abstract
Wearable technology has been advanced for the purpose of physiological monitoring system during daily life. In measuring ground reaction force, the method to estimate plantar pressure from output of compact force sensors on the insole in shoe has been used. However, compact sensors which are used in the method is expensive, it is hard to use the sensors in daily monitoring of sports activity and rehabilitation. In this paper, we have made wearable plantar pressure measuring device which adapted inexpensive thin-film force sensors instead of compact sensors. To evaluate the usefulness of this measuring device, we have measured planter pressure with 5 different cadence and estimated ground reaction force.
