Designing of Foot Imbalance Scanning System

In this paper, a low cost mobile foot pressure scanning device has been developed which has linked with the Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) for continuous monitoring of human foot plantar-pressure. The device was attached to test subjects who then went through a regimen of varied walking, jumping and turning action on the ground. Data was collected simultaneously through WSN device. In this project, the hardware and software system have been developed for detecting, collecting, transmitting and finally analyzing the collected data. To estimate the peak pressure points on the foot sole, several experiments were conducted.
