| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A new system was developed for prevention of wound on the foot, which can lead to diabetic foot ulcers, generation caused by shoe fitting. Only by inserting insole-type sensor into the shoe, the system can measure and visualize the shear force and pressure on the plantar during walking. The reliability and validity of the system was confirmed. In addition, according to research on medical records, the people with diabetes neuropathy tends to wear short length shoes. To educate shoe fitting, 3D software for visualization of shoe fitting was also developed.
