Abstract
A prototype of the FootScanAge System is being used and evaluated by experts in neonatology. By means of digital processing of plantar surface images, some characteristics may be shown. Some hypotheses regarding the method have already been confirmed. Also, we show that some well-known image-processing techniques, if appropriately adapted, lead to suitable results when applied to plantar surface images.
