In XSENSOR Technology's fourth webinar in the 'Running Mechanics' series, we explore using plantar pressure mapping, like XSENSOR's Intelligent Insoles, to assess different footwear types and choose the right shoe for sports applications.
Different sports need different types of footwear depending on factors such as intensity, duration, surfaces, and force application. Today, footwear designers and manufacturers have reached high levels of technological skill and quality and have become integral to the sports performance industry.
Selecting the right shoe, based on an athlete's factors, is still an underrated aspect that can help optimize human performance and decrease the risk of injury. Plantar pressure mapping technology can play a crucial role in helping athletes and players in shoe-fitting by studying the effect of different shoes on biomechanics efficiency.
