Gait analysis is a very important procedure in assessing and improving many quality of life indicators. It is widely used in sports, rehabilitation and health diagnostics. Gait analysis is the study of lower limb movement patterns and involves the identification of gait events and the measurements of kinetics and kinematics parameters. This paper focus on the study and analysis of various design of gait analysis hardware. It also involves the practicality and the suitability of the hardware design to improve the accuracy of the gait analysis. The concept of the hardware is based on the attachment unit which consist of sensor, microcontroller, power supply and Xbee transceiver to the shoe. The selection of sensors and several additional component will also discussed. The result highlights the design and realization of the hardware components for the development of shoe integrated instrumentation for human motion measurement system.
