Abstract:

Aiming at the promotion of wearable plantar pressure monitoring techniques, physiological structure of human foot, source of plantar pressure and walking frequency were introduced. According to the current research status of wearable plantar pressure monitoring systems, materials and working principles of integrative pressure monitoring socks based on fabric sensor were reviewed, and information transfer module and working principles of composite pressure monitoring shoes based on flexible electronic sensor were also scrutinized. The selection principle of feature points used in wearable plantar pressure monitoring systems and its use for detecting falls, foot disease diagnosis and plantar pressure database establishment were described. The problems were pointed out in poor material performance and short wireless transmission distance in the industrialization process, based on which an application proposal with improved performance based on biomechanics, textile materials and electronic communication was put forward for future development.

Key words: wearable, plantar pressure, pressure monitoring, flexible pressure sensor
