Abstract

This invention provides a modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system, comprising a floor mat module, at least one sensing device, and a computing terminal. The floor mat module consists of a plurality of detachable and interlocking floor mat units, which users can arrange and combine into a first detection pattern (such as horizontal side-by-side) or a second detection pattern (such as vertical sequence) according to testing needs, providing visual guidance through the arrangement of the floor mats. The sensing device is disposed on the floor mat and uses a plurality of pressure sensors to detect changes in plantar pressure, and performs signal processing and bidirectional transmission through an internal processing unit and communication unit. The computing terminal receives the signals and generates a real-time pressure distribution map and pressure center trajectory through the motion analysis module (31), thereby calculating the user's arch type and balance stability index, and transmitting the results back to the display unit of the sensing device or displaying them on the computing terminal, achieving home-based, customized motion assessment and rehabilitation training effects.

Claims

1. A modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system, comprising: a floor mat module including a plurality of detachable and interlocking floor mat units, the floor mat units being arranged and combined into a first detection mode or a second detection mode according to a testing requirement; at least one sensing device disposed in a specific area of ​​the floor mat module, the sensing device including a plurality of pressure sensors for detecting changes in plantar pressure of a user moving on the floor mat module and generating a sensing signal; and a computing terminal signal-connected to the sensing device; the computing terminal receiving the sensing signal and generating a real-time pressure distribution map based on the sensing signal; wherein, The computing terminal has a built-in motion analysis module, which calculates a foot arch type index and a balance stability index for the user based on the pressure distribution ratio and pressure center trajectory measured by the pressure sensor.

2. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 1, wherein, The sensing device includes a processing unit, a communication unit, and a display unit. The processing unit is electrically connected to the pressure sensors to receive the sensing signals. The communication unit is responsible for wirelessly transmitting the sensing signals to the computing terminal and receiving an analysis result returned by the computing terminal. The display unit is controlled by the processing unit to display the analysis result.

3. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 1, wherein, The mat units have complementary snap-fit ​​structures around their perimeters for splicing. When the mat units are spliced ​​side by side in a horizontal arrangement, they form the first testing configuration for the user to perform a balance test while standing on both feet. When the mat units are spliced ​​in a vertical sequence, they form the second testing configuration for the user to perform a gait test or a dynamic test involving single-leg forward and backward strides. The splicing shape of the mat modules provides the user with visual guidance regarding the test movements.

4. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 1, wherein, The pressure sensors of the sensing device are distributed in the forefoot, arch, and heel areas of the user's foot. The sensing device is detachably embedded or attached to the top surface of the mat unit, so that the sensing device can move with the arrangement of the mat unit.

5. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 4, wherein, The motion analysis module calculates based on the pressure values ​​of the forefoot area, the arch area, and the heel area. When the pressure value of the arch area is lower than a first preset ratio, it is determined to be a high arch. When the pressure value of the arch area is higher than a second preset ratio, it is determined to be a flat foot. If the pressure value is between the first preset ratio and the second preset ratio, it is determined to be a normal arch.

6. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 1, wherein, The motion analysis module further includes a training suggestion unit; the training suggestion unit retrieves corresponding improvement training courses from a database based on the balance stability index or the arch type index, and displays the movement guidance screen of the training course on the computing terminal to assist the user in strengthening muscle strength or balance.

7. The modular pressure-sensitive motion detection system as described in claim 1, wherein, The display interface of the computing terminal includes a dashboard that simultaneously displays the thermal image of the real-time pressure distribution map, the pressure center trajectory, and the arch type index.
