Velostat is a low-cost, low-profile electrical bagging material with piezoresistive properties, making it an attractive option for in-socket pressure sensing. The focus of this research was to explore the suitability Velostat-based system providing real-time socket profiles. prototype performance explored through series bench tests determine properties including accuracy, repeatability and hysteresis responses, participant testing single subject. fabricated sensors demonstrated mean accuracy...
Disabilities impacting mobility are a global concern requiring gait rehabilitation, where monitoring foot pressure distribution is fundamental. Wearable systems provide an alternative to stationary equipment eliminating space limitations. However, wearable sensors present challenges in the calibration, sensitivity, and human–sensor interface, application-specific sensors. This study aimed develop sensors, structural material properties can characterize sensitivity range of measurement during...
In the UK 55,000 people live with a major limb amputation. The prosthetic socket is problematic for users in relation to comfort and acceptance of prosthesis; associated development cysts sores.
Obtaining a good socket fit is an iterative process dependent on the skill and experience of prosthetist creating it requires individualisation based size shape. There no standard measurement system used to aid prosthetic creation despite severe impacts physical health quality life if one ill fitting. Pressure sensors embedded in were collect data at socket–residuum interface. To choose interpolation method, sensor array was simplified 2D grid with border for extrapolation tested using...
