TLDR
An approach to automatic foot measurement using 3D scanned data is proposed in this paper and there were no significant differences between the SM and MM methods for 17 of the 18 foot dimensions; and the single exception was the heel width dimension.

The use of 3D surface scanning for the measurement and assessment of the human foot

TL;DR: Modern 3D surface scanning systems can obtain accurate and repeatable digital representations of the foot shape and have been successfully used in medical, ergonomic and footwear development applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stiffness of the human foot and evolution of the transverse arch.

TL;DR: A dimensionless curvature parameter is derived that governs the stiffness contribution of the transverse tarsal arch, its predictive power is demonstrated using mechanical models of the foot and its skeletal correlate in hominin feet is found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparing 3D foot scanning with conventional measurement methods

TL;DR: Overall, the 3D foot scanner is recommended for collecting foot anthropometric data because it has relatively higher precision, accuracy and robustness.

Foot deformations under different load-bearing conditions and their relationships to stature and body weight

TL;DR: The results show that the foot became significantly longer, wider, and reduced in height while everting with increased load on the foot.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of surface characteristics on the plantar shape of feet and subjects' perceived sensations.

TL;DR: The results showed that the structure in the mid-foot could change shape, independent of the rear-foot and forefoot regions, and this research has strong implications for the design and material selection of orthotics, insoles and footwear.
