Designing sports footwear that meets the demands of athletic performance requires more than intuition—it demands data. Every choice, from material selection to structural design, impacts a shoe's performance under pressure. This webinar explores how plantar pressure mapping with in-shoe insoles empowers footwear teams to objectively validate and refine their designs.
By capturing what's really happening at the foot-shoe and shoe-ground interfaces, designers and engineers gain actionable insight into critical performance metrics like the center of pressure trajectory, peak pressure, and pressure distribution. These insights enable better understanding of energy absorption, force transmission, and overall biomechanical alignment.
Whether you're building for speed, stability, or comfort, plantar pressure mapping allows you to compare subjective athlete feedback with quantitative, evidence-based data—ensuring your designs perform exactly as intended.
Key Takeaways from This Webinar:
-
Learn – How plantar pressure mapping serves as a powerful tool to optimize footwear design through objective, real-time data.
-
Understand – The role of key metrics—such as center of pressure, peak pressure, and pressure distribution—in validating shoe performance.
-
Experience – How to incorporate in-shoe pressure mapping insoles into your design and testing protocols and how to visualize and interpret the data that matters most when iterating sport-specific footwear.
