What Are the Functions of 3D Foot Scanning Equipment in Footwear Stores?

‍The foot 3D scanning device mainly adopts optical principles such as laser to scan and measure human feet, and obtain plantar size and three-dimensional data.

The introduction of foot 3D scanning devices in physical stores serves the following major functions:

1. Achieve accurate foot measurement and recommend suitable shoe sizes for customers.

Customers only need to stand in the scanning area for 10 to 20 seconds, and the device can accurately measure dozens of parameters including foot length, foot width, foot circumference, arch height, heel inclination, hallux valgus and unequal foot lengths, and generate a detailed measurement report.

With the measurement report, customers can fully understand their foot health conditions. For example, it can assess whether there are problems such as flat feet, high arches, over-pronation and over-supination, and recommend appropriate shoe sizes for customers.

Many customers have left and right feet of different sizes with obvious gaps. In addition, the fatness and thinness of feet also affect shoe size selection.

Choosing shoe sizes merely by experience is highly likely to result in wrong size selection, which may lead to problems such as cramped feet, heel rubbing and heel slipping after purchase.

The foot 3D scanning device can completely solve this problem, enabling customers to purchase shoes and insoles that perfectly fit their foot shapes.

2. Support customized insoles and corrective shoes for customers.

After foot scanning, customers diagnosed with flat feet, high arches and other foot problems can be provided with customized corrective insoles and shoes, helping them solve foot issues while expanding the store's revenue channels.

3D models are the foundation for customizing insoles and shoes.

The foot 3D scanning device can generate 3D data in STL format after foot measurement, which can be transmitted to factories for the customization of insoles and shoes.

Customized personalized insoles and shoes can help stores launch high-unit-price customized businesses, boost revenue and enhance store competitiveness.

3. Reduce the return and exchange rate.

The high return and exchange rate has long been a thorny problem in the footwear industry, incurring substantial costs.

The high return and exchange rate is mainly caused by ill-fitting shoes and insoles purchased by customers.

Equipped with a foot 3D scanning device, customers can buy well-fitting shoes and insoles, which greatly reduces the return and exchange rate.

4. Attract store customers and build store differentiation advantages.

The introduction of foot 3D scanning devices can attract nearby customers to enjoy free foot scanning services, realizing customer drainage.

The device features a strong experiential effect and high-tech attributes. Users tend to take photos after measurement and share them on social platforms and groups, forming spontaneous publicity.

It helps create store differentiation and improve core competitiveness, especially bringing significant advantages for stores selling sports shoes, functional shoes and rehabilitation shoes.
