Abstract

We developed a prototype force plate equipped with five load cells, a 12-bit analog-to-digital converter and three integrated circuits. The force plate displays the center of foot pressure, the magnitude and two (vertical and anterior-posterior) directions of the ground reaction force on a personal computer monitor. Although the force plate data are valid only for two directions, it can be a preliminary version of a more versatile 3 dimensional force plate in terms of the resolution and reliability.
