Revolutionizing Gait Quality Monitoring in People with CIDP: An Instrumented Shoe Insole Solution
In collaboration with University of Ottawa, Duke University Medical Center and Sanofi.
This study explores how smart insoles can track gait quality in people with CIDP in real-world settings. It highlights how continuous monitoring can reduce clinic visits while improving disease tracking and care decisions.
Supervised Insole Gait Analysis in MS Clinical Practice: A Cost-Effective Alternative
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa and Technical University of Dresden (TUD).
This research shows how insole-based gait analysis can match traditional lab systems at a lower cost. It offers a practical way to bring accurate mobility assessment into everyday clinical use.
An Instrumented Shoe Insole Framework for Evaluating Healthy and Neurodegenerative Gait
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa.
This paper presents a full framework for analysing gait using wearable insoles across different populations. It shows strong accuracy and reliability compared to lab-based motion capture systems.
Validation of an Instrumented Shoe Insole Framework for Analyzing Spatiotemporal Gait Metrics in Healthy and Neurodegenerative Populations
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa and the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI).
This validation study confirms that insole-based systems can reliably measure detailed gait metrics. It supports their use for regular monitoring outside the clinic in real-life conditions.
Real-World Gait Monitoring in MS: A Smart Insole Framework for Data-Driven Gait Quality Assessments
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI) and Brigham and Women’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School.
This study shows how continuous gait monitoring can act as a digital biomarker for MS progression. It highlights the value of real-world data in understanding changes over time.
Revolutionizing Gait Quality Monitoring in Multiple Sclerosis: An Instrumented Shoe Insole Solution
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa, Ottawa Hospital Research Institute (OHRI) and Brigham and Women’s Hospital / Harvard Medical School.
This research demonstrates how smart insoles can track gait quality and disease progression in MS. It focuses on using a single score to simplify complex clinical data.
Instrumented Shoe Insoles to Detect Changes in Gait Variability Across Disability Status in People with MS During a 500m Walk
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa.
This study shows how continuous gait monitoring can act as a digital biomarker for MS progression. It highlights the value of real-world data in understanding changes over time.
Identifying Gait Differences in MS Disability Status Using Instrumented Shoe Insoles
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa.
This research demonstrates how digital gait biomarkers can distinguish between different levels of MS disability. It supports the use of insoles for early detection and monitoring
Validation of an Instrumented Shoe Insole to Unobtrusively Monitor Gait Patterns
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa.
This study validates the accuracy of insole-based gait tracking against lab systems. It confirms that reliable clinical metrics can be captured during normal daily movement.
Gait Activity Recognition Using Instrumented Shoe Insoles in Persons With and Without Multiple Sclerosis.
In collaboration with the University of Ottawa.
This research uses machine learning to identify walking activities from insole data. It shows high accuracy in recognising movement types in both healthy people and MS patients.
