Description
System Overview
YETI is a membrane sensor for Gait Analysis designed to be a plug-and-play with Mitch system. It can be used for foot pressure points measurement by healthcare professionals, trainers, biomedical engineers, scientists and researchers. YETI detects and measures contact, touch, force and rate of change of an applied load. This in-shoe sensor behaves like a Force Sensing Resistor(FSR), exhibiting a resistance value inversely proportional to the amount of force applied. As the applied pressure increases, the equivalent resistance of the sensor decreases.
What’s Included
YETI sensors are manufactured as a sandwich construction of a polyester sheet and conductive ink, for a total thickness of 240 μm. Yeti features 16 measurement points carefully placed to maximize the amount of information usefull for gait and pressure mapping research. The sensor can flex and the interconnection flat cable is optimized to follow the engonomics of the foot.
