With the parameter "Braking/acceleration [%]", a statement can be made as to whether the test person is walking evenly, accelerating or decelerating across the platform. The following applies:

Value the test person accelerates

Value > 100% => the test person brakes

Note:
The assessment of all other parameters should be made dependent on the level of this parameter, i.e. if the parameter is between 90% and 110%, then the other values can be used to assess the gait.

After calling the function "GP DV steps" a list of parameters is displayed which can be helpful when interpreting the measured gait patterns. The list of parameters differs for GP MultiSens and GP MobilData by a few entries, as the foot measurement platform only analyses single steps, while the insoles analyse multiple steps.

Common to both displays is the selection of the displayed force curves via a pop-up menu and the specification of a threshold value (threshold). The threshold value means that the measured values that are less than or equal to the set threshold value are not displayed. Two data sets can also be displayed for comparison.

The following standard display is obtained after a measurement has been carried out with GP MobilData and the GP DV Steps module is then called up:

The GP DV Steps module is one of the analysis programmes, as is the GP Video Statistics module. The analysis programmes can be helpful in interpreting the measured values.
