Abstract: An insole for insertion into footwear includes a base, and an arch support located on an underside of the base layer, the arch support including a frame forming at least a portion of a perimeter of the arch support, and multiple ribs extend from a first side of the frame to a second side of the frame, wherein a first set of the ribs is raised relative to a second set of the ribs.

Abstract: A kiosk for providing footcare product recommendations comprises a base, a foot mat positioned in a recess in the base, a removable cover plate positioned over the recess for covering at least a portion of the foot mat, the cover plate comprising an opening leaving at least a portion of the foot mat uncovered, and one or more spacers located in the recess for positioning the foot mat in the recess.

Abstract: A removable insole for footwear, the removable insole includes a base, a plurality of walls extending from and curving along at least a portion of the base, the walls being configured to deform to provide cushioning, and an outer surface at least partially formed from distal ends of the walls, wherein at least a portion of a first wall is taller than an adjacent portion of a second wall so that the portion of the first wall deforms prior to the adjacent portion of the second wall in response to a pressure applied by a planar surface in contact with the outer surface of the cushioning member.

Abstract: A method to generate orthotic product recommendations for users includes receiving interactions from a user including identification of one or more extremity areas of the user's body, the one or more extremity areas relevant to selection of one or more orthotic products. On-screen cues and interactions are provided to assist in positioning of the one or more extremity areas relative to one or more imaging sensors. Scan data is received from the one or more imaging sensors. A model of the one or more extremity areas is generated based on the scan data including estimating one or more complete circumferences of the one or more extremity areas. One or more orthotic products are identified based on a comparison of the model of the one or more extremity areas and one or more factors associated with the user and a plurality of orthotic products. A recommendation is provided that includes the one or more orthotic products.

Abstract: In an embodiment, the present invention is an apparatus, comprising: a foot mat; a depth sensing camera; an elevated foot platform that reduces or prevents rotational movement of a foot; a processor in communication with the depth sensing camera, the processor further configured to calculate the circumference of a user's leg based on data from the depth sensing camera while the user has one foot on the foot mat and one foot on the elevated foot platform, the processor further configured to select a recommended product for the user's knee or ankle from among a set of pre-manufactured candidate products for knees or ankles based at least in part upon the leg circumference of the user; and an output device to display information received from the processor, the information identifying the recommended product to the user.
