ABSTRACT:
According to the present invention, two-dimensional pressure distribution associated with walking are collected at a preselected time interval as time series pressure distribution images, superposed images are formed by superposing the time series pressure distribution images in a time direction, a plurality of foot pressure mass regions are extracted from the superposed images, correspondence of each foot pressure mass region to the time series pressure distribution images are detected, feature parameters associated with the walking are detected based on the correspondence, and the feature parameters are displayed or printed.
