Research progress of wearable plantar pressure monitoring system
Journal Title: Wearable Technology - Year 2022, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
In order to rapidly promote the application of wearable plantar pressure monitoring system, the physiological structure of human foot, the source of plantar pressure and exercise step frequency are introduced. Based on the current research status of wearable plantar pressure monitoring systems, the fabrication materials and response principles of the fabric sensor-based integrated pressure monitoring socks are explored, the principle of selecting the features of the wearable plantar pressure monitoring system and its application in the field of the pressure monitoring system is explained. The principle of selecting the features of wearable plantar pressure monitoring system and its application in fall detection, foot disease diagnosis, and plantar pressure database are explained. Finally, we discussed the problems in the industrialization of wearable plantar pressure monitoring system at this stage. The problems of poor material performance and short wireless transmission distance in the industrialization of wearable plantar pressure monitoring systems are discussed, and a better integrated system based on biomechanics, textile materials and electronic communication is proposed. A better application prospect based on the cross-fusion integration of biomechanics, textile materials and electronic communication is proposed.
