Abstract: The present invention is a system and method for measuring and generating a customized foot orthotic insole that may be inserted into footwear, to reposition the foot to that referenced neutral position or as close to that position as the individual can tolerate. The present invention can scan, manufacture, and dispense the custom insole at an integrated station that can be located in a specialist's office, but also in retail space, malls, airports, etc. The invention allows a customer to have his or her foot scanned using different types of three dimensional scanning or pressure scanning devices, whereupon the information from the scan(s) is/are fed to a semi-automatic design system, where computer programs and specialized AI algorithms create a custom insole design.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for supplying a customer with a footbed. A kiosk provides measurements of a consumer's feet with a self-guided display by using both pressure measurements and scanning of the feet. The measurement information is converted to identify which of the preselected and stocked components proximate the kiosk can be combined to provide an appropriate footbed for the consumer.

Abstract: An intelligent insole for generating time sensitive information about the pressure on the foot. The insole includes a custom-made, semi-custom or generically sized orthotic component. The orthotic is laminated with a top cover and an intermediate pressure sensor having an array of capacitive pressure sensors. Signal processing equipment may be embedded in the insole or placed locally with the insole as on the side of a shoe. The processor also can connect to a wireless transmitter for relaying the information to a remote site.
