Abstract

See full text

A device and method for stimulating a foot of a subject based on ambulatory feedback can impact various characteristics of the subject's gait. The device may include a pressure sensor, a switch or controller, and a vibrational stimulator. The switch or controller actuates the stimulator based on feedback from the pressure sensor. The controller can include algorithms to provide stimulation based on the pressure sensor input, as well as record data related to characteristics such as step or stride interval, step characteristics and other ambulatory-related information.
