Building a Gait Analysis App: Visualizing Normal vs Abnormal Foot Pressure in Real-Time!

Welcome back to the channel! In this video, I dive deep into developing a real-time gait analysis web application that visualizes and compares normal and abnormal foot pressure patterns. Watch as I walk through the process of building an interactive tool that allows users to switch between different gait types and see how pressure points on the foot change over time.

Try the tool here: https://bionichaos.com/GaitAnalysis

I demonstrate how the application uses color-coded heat maps, a time slider, and interactive elements to provide a comprehensive view of foot pressure distribution. You’ll also get an inside look at how I troubleshoot issues with sensor placement, refine the 2D foot model, and optimize the JavaScript and Python code to enhance accuracy.

Throughout the video, I explain the challenges and solutions encountered while creating a realistic foot model with accurate sensor coordinates. I also discuss some of the cool features of my website, BioniChaos.com, including our speech analysis tool and a preview of upcoming gamified biomedical data applications.
