After the loading of 600N, the changes of the plantar pressure in forefoot were measured by the method of the
F-scan plantar pressure system.
Therefore, the primary aim of this study is to present the experimental plantar force and pressure data during various activities using a high-resolution (Tekscan HR F-scan system) pressure mat.
The sensor mat used is the Tekscan HR F-scan system, with 8448 sensels on a surface area of 0.572 m by 0.457 m (0.261 [m.sup.2]).
Baropodometry is a quite easy-to-use method to evaluate changes in plantar pressure during gait using an inshoe system containing pressure sensors (F-Scan system, Tekscan Inc; South Boston, Massachusetts).
Data were collected using the F-Scan in-shoe system.
Boston, MA -- Tekscan[R], Inc., a leading provider of technologies for analyzing foot function, gait, and balance, announced the release of new, improved software for their F-Scan in-shoe analysis system.
The F-Scan system gives them that kind of objective documentation.
The test-retest reliability of the measurement instrument (
F-scan sensors) during stair negotiation was determined by testing five subjects with unilateral TTA (Table 2) twice over a 48 to 72 h period, and SEW was determined for each session.
The pressure measurement system selected to monitor and record the interface pressure between the residual limb and prosthetic socket was a validated 6-channel
F-Scan system (Tekscan), and the system software used was version 5.24 with synchronized video capture.
