Rapid Rehab Smart Insole Will Train Athletes and Assist Rehab Patients

This should become mandatory for all therapists working with patients walking. Accurately and objectively  detecting gait problems might be useful. That would then require a whole new way of training physical therapists  to focus on individual muscles to correct walking problems. Sorry Amy and Rebecca if I'm stepping on the PT world. But at least we would have objective data.

The device, called Rapid Rehab, consists of a custom gel insole embedded with force sensors, accelerometers, and gyroscopes to detect a person’s gait. Rapid Rehab also contains a wireless transmitter to send the data from the sensors to a custom smartphone app that tracks it and provides immediate visual, audio, or sensory feedback to the user. The current version specifically contains two force-sensitive resistors for tracking pressure when the foot is on the ground and an accelerometer and gyroscope for measuring foot movement and angle of position.
