Abstract
This article presents preliminary research in designing overlays and insoles for footwear with measurement components located in the mid-foot and the heel area. With this type of measurement components, the gait can be analysed in any place of the room that was designated for this examination. With measurement components used in separate components, the gait can be measured in its different phases. With additive manufacturing technology, the device designed can be quickly verified.
