Abstract :
This paper was focused on iShoe, a device used for balancing. This device was designed for patient rehabilitation that would operate safely in home of elderly or recovering patient. This device was comprise of wearable device such as force sensor, assistive device such as walker, and environmental sensor. Topics on design such as Tekscan´s FlexiForce sensor, force sensor, accelerometer, PC interfacing, microcontroller, insole development, walker development,and data acquisition development were discussed.
