State-of-the-Art Foot Scanning PPS has partnered with eSoles, a supplier of high-performance, custom insoles, to design and produce the world's most advanced 3D foot scanning kiosk. A new modular insole system, provides leading performance at a lower cost than going to a foot specialist. The challenge was to find a simple and inexpensive way for the customer to determine the appropriate eSoles components from the over 1,500 possible combinations. To do this, they turned to PPS.
The first step was to accurately capture the foot's shape and size. PPS developed a large, high-speed tactile mat to capture foot pressure information, and combined this with a custom, 3D white light scanner to capture foot geometry. Advanced processing algorithms were created to examine this data, determine key anatomical features, and recommend the most appropriate insole components. The resulting state-of-the-art, self-serve foot imaging kiosk will be placed in hundreds of shoe retailers and sporting goods stores around the globe in 2009.
