The science of foot pressure studies the forces acting on the bottom and different regions of the foot along with the pressure exerted on the plantar surface with the interacting surface in contact. The information derived gave impact to human biomechanical assessment on body balance and ergonomics posture during gait. Various experiments designed at generating foot pressure data returns only with limited knowledge generated. Obviously, the procedure for experiment design needs to be properly understood from the foot morphology aspects; healthiness, footwear, surface in contact, load and forces impacts, and the foot sensitivity as well as the specification for the foot pressure. This paper reviews the proper preliminary experimental setups for foot pressure measurement analysis during static or dynamic gait. The strength and limitations of recent devices used and considerable variables are also discussed. The overall review explains that the comfortable natural gait in relation to the aspects of sensitivity, load, time duration, and stability are the standard considerations for plantar pressure experiments.
足底压力研究科学主要研究与足底和足部不同区域相关的力，以及与相互作用表面接触时对足底表面施加的压力。所得信息对人体在步态过程中的生物力学平衡和人体工程学姿势评估产生了影响。各种旨在生成足底压力数据的实验仅能产生有限的知识。显然，实验设计过程需要从足部形态学方面进行适当的理解；包括健康状况、鞋类、接触表面、负荷和力的影响以及足部敏感性以及足底压力的规格。本文回顾了在静态或动态步态期间进行足底压力测量分析的适当初步实验设置。还讨论了最近使用的设备的强度和局限性以及相当多的变量。总体回顾表明，与敏感性、负荷、时间持续时间和稳定性相关的舒适自然步态是足底压力实验的标准考虑因素。
