Portable baropodometry plateform

STAPPONE Physio

Overview
STAPPONE Physio is a mobile gait analysis system combining medically certified textile sensor insoles and dedicated software for clinical assessment and therapy monitoring. Sensor insoles are placed into regular shoes and connect via Bluetooth to a PC or tablet. The system records, analyses and visualizes gait and movement patterns, provides live-biofeedback during static and dynamic exercises, and stores reports in a patient database for objective monitoring of therapy progress.

Key uses

• Visualize therapy progress to improve patient adherence
• Individualize therapy plans based on objective gait metrics
• Provide real-time biofeedback to train correct movement patterns
• Perform gait or running analysis outside laboratory settings

How it works (onboarding)

• 1. Insert the sensor insole into the patient's shoe
• 2. Pair the insole with STAPPONE software on PC or tablet via Bluetooth
• 3. Observe live movement data for assessment and therapy guidance

Sensor insole technology
STAPPONE sensor insoles use a patented textile pressure sensor technology with fully integrated electronics for high durability. Each insole incorporates onboard memory (256 MB) and inertial sensors (gyroscope, magnetometer, accelerometer) to capture load distribution and kinematic data relevant to rehabilitation and load management.

Advantages

• Objective documentation of biomechanical parameters
• Quantifiable and visible therapy progress
• Supports faster, data-driven rehabilitation decisions
• Enhances patient motivation through live-biofeedback and documented outcomes

Features
The system offers wireless operation via Bluetooth, video synchronization, automated report generation and storage in a patient database, rapid measurement workflows, live-biofeedback during static and dynamic exercises, and comparative reporting to track therapy progress.

Product package

• Carrying case with integrated chargers
• 12 pairs of disinfectable sensor sockets (EU36–EU47) for multiple-use
• STAPPONE Physio software (PC/Tablet)
