Abstract :
This article presents a review of the application of insole plantar pressure sensor system in recognition and analysis of the hemiplegic gait in stroke patients. Based on the review, tailor made 3D insoles for plantar pressure measurement were designed and fabricated. The function is to compare with that of conventional flat insoles. Tailor made 3D contour of the insole can improve the contact between insole and foot and enable sampling plantar pressure at a high reproducibility.
