Dear all,
I am going to do a research on running and I want to measure plantar pressure using Pedar insoles and also the kinematics of lower extremity. I have a problem now! Cables attached to the insoles cover the lateral part of the ankle so I cannot put the marker on lateral malleolus. I cannot put the marker on the the cables either because in running they move a lot and sometimes they fold, therefore it`s not really accurate.
Any experience to solve the problem? I really appreciate your advice.
All the best,
Sobhan

 

Turn the insole upside down in the other foot and run the cable up the medial side of the foot.

 

Beat me to it.:dizzy:

 

Dear Craig ,
thanks for your suggestion. If we turn the insole and put it in another side the cable will
be still on the lateral side! I think you mean simply put the left insole to the right shoe and right insole to the left shoe. If it`s so, we have already tried this but there are two problems:
1) insoles do not fit completely,
2) more important, everything is mirrored now. Being left right and right being left is not a big deal, the problem is that each sensor is now mirrored too! It makes is really complicated!
Have you done this before?

Cheers,
Sobhan
