Abstract

The invention relates to a method (1), a device or a system for inferring a plantar pressure line (30), the solution comprising: loading (200) a correlation model, said correlation model defining a relationship between a plurality of data obtained from plantar pressure sensors and a plurality of foot angle values relative to a predetermined standard; calculating (400) foot angle values relative to the predetermined standard, based on movement data generated by an inertial measurement unit 21 at at least two moments of a bearing phase of the foot of said individual; and inferring (500) a plurality of pressure centres to form the plantar pressure line (30) of the foot of the individual, based on angle values calculated at the at least two moments of the bearing phase of the foot and on the correlation model.

Abstract

The invention relates to a system and a method for validating an orthopaedic correction for an individual. The method comprises in particular: - a step (140) of acquiring movement data which are generated during a displacement of the individual in the presence of the orthopaedic correction that is to be validated; - a step (150) of calculating, on the basis of the generated movement data, a value of at least one foot angle for several instants of the displacement; and - a step (160) of comparing the calculated values of at least one foot angle and predetermined foot angle values, so as to validate or not validate the orthopaedic correction (40).
