Gait Shoes


Project Title:

Project Team Members: Tushar Verma

Project Description:  A device that will measure pressure exerted by the body on the foot at different points. The data will be used for creating a pressure distribution profile for that individual. This will be used to recommend whether arch support for the foot is needed or not. Create a pressure distribution graph/timeline

Sketch/Concept Art: Coming up with a new and different shoe design will be a challenge.
Inspiration:  Personal experience

Materials:

Pressure sensors

Shoe sole
Arduino Board
Bluetooth Module
COST: $100

Timeline:

March 10th: Create a custom design for the foot
March 15th: Get all the material
March 17th: Attach the sensors
March 22nd: Start programming the sensors
Fallback Plans:

Just creating a pressure profile
