Abstract: The disclosed device features is a contacting three dimensional sole measuring device to produce accurate three dimensional renditions of the bottom of a human foot placed thereon. The device features one or a plurality of sensors groups communicating with the top surface of a case. Each sensor group is dimensioned to accommodate the area of a footprint of a human foot when placed on top of it. Each sensor group is composed of a plurality of linear displacement sensors which measure the displacement caused by the bottom surface of the foot and communicate that displacement to a data processing device which compiles a three dimensional rendition of the bottom of the foot surface from the individual data points from the displacement senors. Accurate renditions of the bottom surface of a human foot may be achieved by a person simply standing on the sensor groups barefoot.
