Abstract | This paper uses a new approach to examine the characteristics of human plantar pressure of obese people. This approach is based on statistical techniques. It helps in solving the problem of the requirement of a significant amount of sources. This approach utilised statistical techniques to combine data from published works and self-captured data. The final results then are calculated from the combined data. Five obese volunteers were engaged in this study to examine the maximum force (MF) and peak pressure (PP). By using a 10-m walkway and 3000E Fscan in-shoe sensors, these characteristics were studied for the regions of: the whole foot, heel, midfoot, forefoot, hallux and toes. The findings of all twelve parameters studied in this research indicated that the proposed methodology gives more accurate results with less resources, where SEs were smaller than SDs in all 12 (100%) parameters studied. The whole foot had the largest values of MF, whereas the heel area had the highest value of PP. On the other hand, the toes region had the lowest values of both MF and PP. |
