| Abstract | Customized orthotics is highly expensive and usually, a trip to the orthopedist or podiatrist to get the foot evaluated can cost many bucks. Therefore, the objective of this experiment is to design a low-cost imprint method that can measure pressure distributions on the foot and investigate the effect of different OTC insoles on the foot pressures. |
