ABSTRACT:
A video pedobarograph system for providing a real time, qualitative display of dynamic relative pressure measurements includes a plurality of force sensors, a substantially rigid support structure and video pedobarograph electronics. The force sensors generate dynamic relative pressure signals and are positioned within a force sensor matrix structure. The substantially rigid support structure includes a substantially planer surface to which the sensor matrix structure is fixedly secured. The video pedobarograph electronics include a video sync stripper and control logic. The video sync stripper strips a video sync signal from a composite video signal received by the video pedobarograph electronics. The control logic maps the dynamic relative pressure signals to the composite video in response to the video sync signal to generate a mapped composite video signal providing a qualitative display of the dynamic relative pressure signals within a predetermined portion of an overall video image generated from the mapped composite video signal.
