Key Questions

What problems in squatting form can we detect from force sensors? How consistent is detection across different users? Can we provide accurate real time feedback on squatting form?

SLIDE 8

Key Findings

Squatting form correlates with foot force distribution Knee pronation and uneven weight distribution detected Calibration provides more accurate data Real time feedback using ROS and Arduino

SLIDE 9

Going Forward

Need to incorporate force sensor matrix

Implementation Detecting placement of feet among matrix

Further user testing Longevity testing Improvement of UI
