Foot plantar pressure is the study of pressure fields acting between the plantar surface of the foot and a supporting surface during everyday locomotion. Such plantar pressure information has proven to be useful in the diagnosis and management of pressure related foot problems, sport mechanics, footwear design, injury prevention and other applications. This paper reviews various foot plantar pressure measurement systems used for different applications. New innovative applications are human identification, biometric, monitoring posture allocation and rehabilitation support system. Gait analysis researchers are focusing on designing systems for uninterrupted measurement of real life parameters which is important in understanding the effect of daily activities on health. The ideal system to achieve this would be mobile, un-tethered, placed in the shoe sole and able to measure plantar pressure effectively in the targeted environment.
