GeBioM recommends regular calibration of the measuring foils or sensors by the manufacturer, at least once a year. If the systems are used almost daily, this should be repeated more often. In the case of industry, however, this can also be carried out by an appropriately equipped and instructed specialised laboratory. Due to the special calibration procedure, instructions are required. The manufacturer should be consulted for this.
The target user group for the systems is not made up of end users, but of specialist groups (engineers, orthopaedic (shoe) technicians, biomechanics specialists, etc.) from the various sectors:
- Orthopaedic (shoe) technology
- Sports biomechanics
- Automotive industry
- Mattress industry
- Seating industry
The user of the GeBioM pressure distribution measuring systems is always given an intensive introduction when the systems are delivered, usually even on site. This includes basic handling of the systems, exclusion criteria for certain measurement situations (e.g. do not use sharp objects, etc.) and an introduction to the evaluation options of the respective system. The specialist knowledge required to analyse the results can be assumed. The devices cannot be used contrary to their intended purpose according to normal judgement. The measures taken by the user based on the respective measurement results are always subject to his personal expertise and philosophy.
The systems are designed in such a way that the respective test person (in industry usually employees of the respective department, in sales counselling the customer, in orthopaedic (shoe) technology the customer/patient) is not significantly influenced by sitting on or walking on the measurement sensors. Where necessary, the measurement technology is also applied to the test subject by the professional user. Otherwise, the test person simply walks over the measuring field, lies on it or wears the measuring foils in their shoes.
Important: Care must be taken to ensure that the measuring foils or sensors are not damaged by sharp objects.
objects. This could cause the sensor system to fail.
With the GT Radix pressure measurement system, you can record the plantar pressure load in the shoe.
The data from the sensors is sent directly to the PC via Bluetooth and stored there, allowing your customer to move freely. Depending on the shoe size, the flexible measuring soles have 40 to 64 sensors per sole. The maximum measuring frequency is 200 Hz and the resolution of the measured values is 12 bits, so that sporting movements can be recorded with a high degree of accuracy. The range of the measuring distance varies between 15 metres inside buildings and around 100 metres in open spaces. The measuring surfaces of the systems can be customised. Customised designs for special applications such as butt, Charcot or crescent bases are possible. The measuring surfaces are repairable and can be calibrated again and again, guaranteeing a long service life.
