To provide an insole capable of effectively inhibiting hallux valgus. An insole in which a heel configured so as to make a human heel arranged higher than a toe when worn is fixed on a back surface side, an upper is fixed on a upper surface side, and an outsole is fixed on the back surface side, the insole having: a stamping-part support part to support a stamping part of a foot of a user; a plantar-arch corresponding part contiguously connected to the stamping-part support part, having a tilt rising toward a rear end part direction, and corresponding to a plantar arch of the foot of the user; and a heel support part contiguously connected to the plantar-arch corresponding part, wherein the heel support part has a concave part to be able to enwrap the heel of the user.

A method and system for heterogeneous event detection. Sensor data is obtained and divided into discrete data windows. Each data window is defined by and corresponds to a time period of the sensor data. A time-frequency representation over the time period is calculated for each data window. A filter mask is calculated based on the data window corresponding to the time-frequency representation. The filter mask is applied for reverting the time-frequency representation to a time representation, resulting in filtered data. Features, such as extrema or other inflection points, are identified in the filtered data. The features define events, and transforming the time-frequency representation back into the time domain emphasizes differences between more and less prominent frequencies, facilitating identification of heterogeneous events. The method and system may be applied to body movements of people or animals, automaton movement, audio signals, light intensity, or any suitable time-dependent variable.

The present invention relates to an electrical insole technical field, more particularly, involved to an insole. The insole includes an insole body, a lower pad and a mounting box. The insole body is provided with a bottom surface, a first rear end and a first front end. The lower pad is provided with a second front end and a second rear end; the second front end is correspondingly stacked with the first front end, the second rear end is correspondingly folded with the read end; the mounting box is fixed in the mounting cavity. The lower pad of the insole is correspondingly stacked with the bottom surface of the insole body, with the stacked design, the insole can be assembled quickly and easily, with less assembly procedures.

A cushioning article comprises a first and a second polymeric sheet bonded to one another and enclosing an interior cavity. The polymeric sheets retain a gas in the interior cavity. A tensile component disposed in the interior cavity includes a first tensile layer, a second tensile layer, and a plurality of tethers spanning the interior cavity and connecting the first tensile layer to the second tensile layer. An inwardly-protruding bond joins the first polymeric sheet to the first tensile layer, protrudes inward from the first polymeric sheet toward the second polymeric sheet, and partially traverses the plurality of tethers. The first polymeric sheet is displaced from the first tensile layer adjacent to the inwardly-protruding bond by the gas. A method of manufacturing a cushioning article is disclosed.

A device and a method for identifying a motion pattern of a person that allow suitable feedback about an identified motion pattern to be produced in real time, to address the disadvantage that there is no provision for direct feedback to the person in the event of abnormal behavior being detected. This is achieved by virtue of a device for identifying a motion pattern of a person having at least one sensor for capturing motion parameters and at least one evaluation unit, which is couplable to the at least one sensor, for evaluating the motion parameters and for producing a motion pattern.

An insole having, a base layer, a top layer fixedly secured to the base layer, a middle layer comprised of the base layer and the top layer positioned between the base layer and the top layer, a pressure projection extending upwardly from within the middle layer and extending past an upper surface of the upper layer, the projection including a disc fixedly secured within the middle layer, an annular ring fixedly secured atop the disc, a circular metal insert fixedly secured atop the disc within the annular ring, the circular metal insert having a horseshoe-shaped aperture therein. The insole may also include projections either positioned proximate an inside arch and/or positioned proximate an outside arch. The insole may also comprise a projection positioned proximate to a midfoot region.

A system for analysis of user gait and to provide correction in form of haptic and visual feedback. This system comprises a motion and force sensors and a haptic actuator embedded in the user shoe insoles in communication with a smart-phone based analysis application, configured to calculate motion and orientation of the user feet in relation to the value, location and distribution of ground reaction forces measured by sensors located in the shoe insoles and after analysis of said forces and motion, to provide haptic feedback to the user foot instructing about the location (and timing) of pressure the user must apply to achieve an optimal gait.
