INSOLES FOR INSERTION INTO AN ARTICLE OF FOOTWEAR AND SYSTEM FOR MONITORING A FOOT PRESSURE

摘要

An insole (1) for insertion into an article of footwear, comprising flexible upper sheet, lower sheet, insulating dielectric sheet, capacitive force sensors (10) with upper electrodes and lower electrodes and networks of upper conductive leads (11) and lower conductive leads (12). The insole comprises a chip support member (13) and control and transmit electronics (14) comprising a control electronic (15) and a wireless transceiver (16). An upper contacting tab of the upper sheet is in surface contact with the chip support member (13) and comprises conductive leads connected to the upper electrodes. A lower contacting tab of the lower sheet is in surface contact with the chip support member (13) and comprises conductive leads connected to the lower electrodes.
