The principle and use of plantar pressure plate

The plantar pressure plate is also called the plantar pressure distribution system.

A large number of high-density pressure sensors are integrated inside the pressure plate. When a person passes over the pressure plate, the sensor will immediately sense the pressure conditions of various parts of the plantar, and convert these pressure conditions into electrical signals and transmit them to the computer. The computer displays the pressure distribution and gait conditions in the software in the form of graphs.

After the measurement, the user can export the corresponding Word and PDF reports to view the test results.

The uses of the plantar pressure plate are mainly the following:

1. Used in foot screening in schools.

The plantar pressure plate can be used to screen students' feet in batches to see if there are flat feet, high arches, inversion and gait problems.

Especially for adolescents and children, if foot problems can be discovered early, early detection and early treatment can be achieved, the cost of correction is low, and the foot health of young children can be better maintained.

The later you find a problem with your feet, the harder it is to cure it. If you want to correct your feet after you become an adult, it will take a lot of effort, and you may even need to do it by hand.

2. Used in the foot examination department of the hospital.

The traditional detection method is mainly based on the naked eye and experience.

With the high-tech plantar pressure plate, doctors have more accurate data for the diagnosis of foot diseases, can quickly find the problem, and can make personalized correction plans based on the measured data.

3. Used in the personalized design and production of insoles and shoes.

The foot size of each of us is almost unique.

It is difficult for the shoes and insoles we wear to fit our feet completely.

If the fit is large, it may cause health problems such as foot pain in the long run.

Through the data of the plantar pressure plate, we can design shoes and insoles that fit our feet completely.

Of course, the design effect will be better if the 3D data measured by the plantar scanner can be combined.
