Our purpose was to demonstrate the possibility of providing foot-healthcare application by using an in-shoe motion sensor (IMS) through validating feasibility applying IMS for measuring first metatarsophalangeal angle (FMTPA), which is most important parameter regarding common foot problem hallux valgus. Methods: The signals can represent motions when mid-foot and hindfoot were modelled as a rigid body. FMTPAs be estimated from foot-motion measured embedded beneath arch near calcaneus side...
For proper walking, metatarsophalangeal joints play a crucial role during gait. In this study, we specify characteristic features observed in the foot motion signals measured by an in-shoe sensor that are significantly affected first angle (FMTPA). To validate these specified features, conduct classification test for high and low FMTPA subjects using them. Fifty (23 males 27 females) participated our their FMTPAs were digital photography. The with above below 20 degrees categorized as...
