AB  - In this study, we present an insole with three Force Sensing Resistors (FSR) one each for toe, hallux
and heel which provides quantitative gait analysis outside the confinement of traditional lab at a low cost. The
aim of the study was to explore the validity and reliability of the insole in a healthy individual. Gait data were
collected from a healthy individual at three different paces of walking. Validation of the data was performed
with zebris FDM system. Through a series of analytical tests we tested the accuracy and validated the
performance of FSR insole. With the future scope being, developing an algorithm for a smartphone app that
acquires the acceleration signal from the insole for users to assess the abnormality of gait.
