3D Gait analysis
Footscan Gait Analysis is an advanced system used to assess foot function and movement during walking, balance and standing. It utilises a high resolution pressure plate with thousands of sensors to capture detailed data on how your feet interact with the ground.
How does it work?
- You walk or run over the Footscan pressure plate.
- The system records key details like pressure distribution, timing, foot position, and gait asymmetry.
- The data is analysed to identify issues or abnormal weight distribution.
- If needed, the system can generate a custom 3D-printed Phits Orthoses designed specifically for your feet to improve support and pressure distribution.
