  • Title: Validation of a Footwear-Based Gait Analysis System With Action-Related Feedback.
    Author: Minto S, Zanotto D, Boggs EM, Rosati G, Agrawal SK.
    Journal: IEEE Trans Neural Syst Rehabil Eng; 2016 Sep; 24(9):971-980. PubMed ID: 26561476.
    Abstract:
    Quantitative gait analysis enables clinicians to evaluate patient mobility and to diagnose neuromuscular disorders. The clinical application of gait analysis is currently limited by the high operating costs of gait laboratories. The use of instrumented footwear that performs out of the lab measurements on subjects' walking patterns is a promising way to overcome this limitation. Besides serving as assessment tools, such devices can also act as retraining tools that help regulate a patient's gait with acoustic or vibrotactile stimuli.
