Implementation of CoM footboard sensor for lower limb rehabilitation

Usually people are getting poor sense of balance by getting older or sometimes they lose it by accident. The poor sense of balance causes dizziness, which makes people unable to enjoy normal activities due to dizziness-related problems. In this paper, we propose a CoM (Center of Mass) footboard sensor for lower limb rehabilitation. It measures not only the position of feet, but also the weight degree of feet. Also, it senses the pressure degree of elbow and heel. So, it is possible to analyze straight standing or sense of balance that straight walk of the user.
