TLDR
Gait Velocity is selected for basic analysis of the gait pattern in this paper and shows linear relation between gait velocity and age as age increases the velocity decreases.Abstract:
Walking is the commonly adopted exercise to maintain and regain the fitness. The very basic thing which layman can understand is observed variation in walking speed during different phases, monitoring of such variation at early stage helps out to know the health condition in certain diseases. To understand the influence of Barefoot Walk and with Shoe Walk, Gait Velocity is selected for basic analysis of the gait pattern in this paper. Fifty subjects within age group of 25 to 75 years are selected for data collection and requested to walk barefoot and using comfortable footwear. Using GAITRite mat platform working on pressure sensors logic, data is recorded and results are tested. Results shows that the barefoot velocity remains on lower side compared with shoe walk. While, when compared along with age group it shows linear relation between gait velocity and age. As age increases the velocity decreases.read more

A normative sample of temporal and spatial gait parameters in children using the GAITRite electronic walkway.
TL;DR: Developmental patterns of temporal and spatial gait parameters assessed using the GAITRite are similar to those reported in previous studies, however, the mean values for each age group differ slightly from previous gait study results.

Barefoot vs common footwear: A systematic review of the kinematic, kinetic and muscle activity differences during walking
TL;DR: This review aims to investigate the effect of footwear on gait, specifically focussing on studies that have assessed kinematics, kinetics and muscle activity between walking barefoot and in common footwear.

Central gait control mechanisms and the stride length - cadence relationship.
TL;DR: The near-invariant SLCrel, unaffected by ageing that exists for nearly all individuals when walking at self-selected speeds, indicates that the SLC Rel may be used to simplify central control of automatic gait in healthy individuals.

A normative sample of gait and hopping on one leg parameters in children 7-12 years of age.
TL;DR: While step length only showed a small increase from 7 to 12 years of age, hop length showed significant increase both in absolute and normalized values, indicating that a normative sample of hop length measurements includes a wide range of values for each age group.

TL;DR: The results show a significantly less stride length and walking velocity, higher stance ratio, and step-time variability in the abnormal gait without toe rotation than those in normal walking gait.
