Project Title

An Intelligent Digital System For Foot Weight Distribution

Project Area of Specialization

Electrical/Electronic Engineering

Project Summary

In this work we proposed a novel digital system that finds the weight distribution of a human body on different parts of the foot. The system uses a precise data acquisition system to collect data from the feet using the sensors located on different parts of the feet. The system applies machine learning techniques to understand foot patterns and diagnose different diseases.

Project Objectives

Weight distribution finds its applications in occupational rehabilitation, physical rehabilitation, sports, military training and most importantly in daily life postural training.Incorrect body weight distribution is an important issue in the field of medical science.The objective is to create a system that  that shows the weight distribution on both the foots and uses intelligent system to tell the abnormalities present by using the data collected.

.

Project Implementation Method

  Data is collected from the foot parts using strain gauges (8×8)x4 having 12mm  diameter and a sensitivity of 100kg weight.The acquired data is converted from analog to digital using a Analog to Digital Converter (Arduino Mega).The converted data is fed into the processing system(Single Board Computer ).Python 3.6 is used for processing and visualizations.The intelligent application compares the acquired data of the experimented person to the data of the healthy person to identify abnormalities

Benefits of the Project

Correct body weight distribution is compulsory for Sports, Gym Training, Military Training and daily life postural training etc.Incorrect weight distribution causes problems in the human body eg Back pain, Joint Pain , Knee Pain etc.This project can help reduce many abnormalities by showing the weight distribution as it will give the information if the individual has correct weight distribution or not and will inform him about the further effects of it.This project is programmable for multiple problems of the human body and can be programmed to find different abnormalities.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

The final deliverable will be a hardware system with python programmig language for the machine learning.The final system will comprise of strain guage as the input of the data which will be transmitted to the ADC and processed in the processing system which is a single board computer.Python is also used for visulaizations on the screen.
